Technique Description

Graphic from http://www.judoinfo.com/techdraw.htm

Danzan Ryu's version looks more like Osoto Gari, whereas in Judo, it almost looks like a thigh sweeping throw. Since it's categorized as a hand technique, the technique must have been thought of being primarily executed by tori's arms.
