TAKAMASA (高正), Shōwa (昭和, 1926-1989), Gifu – “Takamasa” (高正), real name Yasuda Yoshitarō (安田芳太郎), born April 7th 1912, he worked as guntō smith.

 

From Markus Sesko's Swordsmiths of Japan.

Thank you for your response and attention to the topic. Unfortunately my English does not always allow me to understand the ambiguity of sayings. But next time I'll try to take advantage of Stephen wishes.

Yours faithfully

Alexander
