EdWolf Posted May 15, 2018 Report Posted May 15, 2018 Hi to all, I’m doing some research and I’m looking for pictures of swords made by a sword smith called Ujikumo. All I know is that he was active in the Kanei era (1624-1644) and living in the Owari province. His teacher was Ujifusa (2nd generation). I have searched the internet and this forum, but I can’t find any swords made by him. Also all other information will be highly appreciated. Best regards, Ed Quote
