Does anyone have any information on Seki swordsmiths from WWII? I am looking for details about Ando Kanemoto whos signature is on a sword of mine I just purchased with the Seki stamp. It is in beautiful shape with a nice hamon and I can't seem to find anything about him online. I have seen the name "kanemoto" a handful of times, but not pared with "ando".

 

The picture below shows my sword's signature (with enhancement to help with seeing it online) and a copy of the signature out of a book.
