Shintogo Kunimitsu

We take our name with highest respect and regards to a famous Japanese swordsmith of the same name.  Shintōgo Kunimitsu (新藤五国光) was especially famous for making Tanto. He is the founder of the Soshu-den tradition. Usually he used suguha Hamon. The oldest date of his work is 1293. He was active during the Einin, Shōwa and Enkyō periods, generally acknowledged to be the teacher of master swordsmiths Masamune, Yukiimitsu and Norishige. This is due to various similarities in style and workmanship that indicate that Masamune was almost certainly his student.
