According to Don Cunningham and Serge Mol the uchiharai jutte is an extra long jutte with uchi meaning "strike" and "harai" meaning parry, while the kanemuchi (kanamuchi) is an iron whip. I have images of a few that were for sale recently. Two uchiharai jutte that I suspect might be recently made and one kanemuchi which could be recent as well. The last image looks like a kanemuchi that I believe might be real, it is an extremely long one (103cm or 51 inches) with a lot of inscriptions on it, if anyone can translate I would be interested in finding out what it says.
