Shibuki (sword)

Homatsu is one of the swords of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, wielded by Jinpachi Munashi. It combines the use of explosive tags to incorporate explosions into the swordsmanship. The sword is designed with a scroll filled with numerous exploding tags. The sword has two sides: a narrow blade on one side, and a wide platform on the other. The scroll unrolls on the platform side, with the scroll sliding down the surface. Segments of the scroll come apart, there being one segment on the platform at any time. Once the opponent gets close enough to the platform, the exploding tags ignite and the segment of the scroll on the platform gets separated and the user moves away from the point of detonation, so that only the opponent gets caught in the explosion. The sword seems to be able to "reload" another segment of tags onto the platform automatically.

The sword is first seen when a revived Mangetsu Hōzuki summons it from a scroll which he then returns to an also revived Jinpachi.
