He became a disciple of his uncle, Shigetoshi Miyaguchi, and later Masakichi Morioka.Moved to Tokyo in 1903. After serving as an early instructor at Hikosaburo Kurihara's Japanese sword training school in Akasaka, Tokyo, in 1935 he forged swords at the Tokiwa Sho Sword Institute in Tozan's residence and became the chief swordsmith.

He created a number of gift swords. He passed away in 1965 at the age of 80.

This piece is decorated with carvings of Daikokuten(大黒天) and Ebisu-sama(恵比寿様), and has the character ``Shoun(昇運)'' engraved in intaglio, making it a very auspicious wakizashi.
