A little more about the smith. Thanks to Chris Bowen.

He was born March 31 in the 43rd year of Meiji. He was from Kuroiso in Tochigi Prefecture (Kurihara was also from Tochigi- thus the connection). His real name was Akimoto Shinichi. His grandfather was Zenhyoe Aizu Kanesada. In Showa 6 he entered the Nihonto Tanren Denshujo in Akasaka Hikawacho. He studied under Kurihara Hikosaburo Akihide and Kasama Ikkansai Shigetsugu. Later (Showa 16), he became an instructor when they moved the school to Zama and called it the Nihonto Gakuin. Miyairi Akihira and Amada Akitsugu were students under Akitomo, as were many others. He was a Rikugun Jumei Tosho. After the war, he returned to sword making in Showa 29. He made a largecontribution to the revival of the craft post war byteaching and helping many young smiths and others who would enter the post war sword contests. In thewar era contests, he won the Meio award 3 times, the Sori Daijin Award 3 times, the Monbu Daijin Award once. In the post war contests, he won the Yushu Award, the Doryoku Award, and many others....

Thanks Bruno, indeed it has.
