Musashi Masamune
The Musashi Masamune was the signature katana of the legendary Japanese ronin Miyamoto Musashi who lived in the 17th century. Musashi used this legendary blade to rack up a 61 duel win streak. After his death, the blade passed onto the Saigo Clan who kept it as a family heirloom. By the time of the Boshin War, Saigo Kayano was the owner of the blade but his incompetence in battle led him to being killed. The Masamune was later claimed by Matsudaira Katamori after Japanese Assassins Shiba Atsuko and Nakano Takeko protected it from British Templar William Lloyd, who was tasked with stealing the blade for Emperor Meiji. During the Battle of Aizu, Lloyd finally took possession of the blade, but he was later killed by Ibuka and the sword was brought back to the Assassins.[1]
