The last plane on the right is a bit of an enigma - it is also not a known smith, and it was in kurashige's warehouse area. it's a 65mm plane with a very gentle radius bottom; I look forward to putting some subtle curves on some non-tabletop surfaces.

The three blades in the middle are unknown (and, in the the case of the two 65mm blades, unmarked) smiths. The two on the bottom were a) to cute to not buy and b) made by Sekikawa, who is one of my favorite smiths. These came from Kurashige tools, who were also a pleasure to visit.
