george trotter Posted August 12, 2016 Report Posted August 12, 2016 Hi Oliver, I think we have discussed the Amachi line before. Type in Amachi and Amaike and I think the old posts will come up. Just quickly, there were two brothers and possibly three working as Seki smiths in WWII. Amachi Reiichiro Masatsune was the elder brother Amachi Reijiro Kanenaga was the second brother Amachi Yoshimasa was the third? brother (or a son?). I have seen a number of their swords and while some have seki stamps or showa? stamps, some are unstamped. Some seem to be self signed and some are Seki sword company na kiri shi signed. Hope this helps. Quote
