Bruce Pennington Posted July 8, 2019 Report Posted July 8, 2019 I've come across an old thread about a Kanemitsu blade with a hotstamp. The hotstamp was translated as "Kaneuji registered trade mark". Why would Kanemitsu use a registered trademark of Kaneuji? Are they the same guy? Were they 2 smiths working together? Sorry, but I'm completely illiterate when it comes to smiths and their history.

Bruce Pennington Posted July 15, 2019 Author Report Posted July 15, 2019 This gets worse: a Kanemitsu with a "Okada" hotstamp. PLUS, just came across this on Japaneseswordindex, http://www.japaneseswordindex.com/teruhide.htm, where the same kakihan is used by Ishido Teruhide and Ishido Mitsunobu (same guy?) Quote
