Jcstroud Posted October 25, 2023 Author Report Posted October 25, 2023 It makes me wonder if Takeyasu and Toyosuke were the same swordsmith due to the same anchor stamp same crosshatched file marks same takayama kissaki same burnt end on the nakago.? Seems possible he used one name for Navy blades and another for army blades in similar fashion as Masanao and Kanenao who also worked at Takayama forge.I know this is conjecture until proven. Perhaps a Takayama thing.......? Quote
