Houan tsuba is called a school of that lineage because the first Hoan called himself Kawaguchi Saburo Hoan, and the second and subsequent generations called themselves Houan as their family name. The first generation Houan was a master craftsman of Owari Tsuba, and technical exchanges with Nobuie and Yamayoshi can be seen, and there are many similarities in manufacturing methods and styles. He became a retainer of Danjo Asano, the lord of the castle in Kai Province, and moved to Kii in 1601 when his master's house was transferred. The second and subsequent generations settled in Geishu.
