Tan Isshin is considered the founder of Isshin Ryu, but before him is a lineage stemming from Nen Ami Jion, though the veracity of this lineage is suspect. At some point, the line broke up, and the bojutsu remained in Kyoto and the Torite remained in Numata-han. This style is most often found as an ancillary art to Shindo Muso Ryu since Shiraishi Sigeaki, who passed both onto his students.

The kusarigama of Isshin Ryu has a chain that is 1-jô 2-shaku (over 3 meters). The blade of the sickle is straight and sharpened on both sides. The chain is also attached to the bottom of the kama handle, rather than to the top or middle. Serge Mol writes that this may be an earlier form of the kusarigama, and that some credit Isshin Ryu as one of the earliest schools of kusarigamajutsu
