barnejp Posted September 27, 2018 Report Posted September 27, 2018 Hi Everyone, Any famous/well known sword smiths of note that went on to produced culturally significant items (other than blades) after the haitorei, Sword Abolishment Edict, 1876? Thank you, Greg . Quote
Guest Rayhan Posted September 27, 2018 Report Posted September 27, 2018 https://www.christies.com/features/A-Samurai-armourers-articulated-dragon-8184-3.aspx Do a search for Jizai Okimono and it should lead to fun articles. Mostly referencing armour makers switching to this art. The Gassan family and Enshin are notable mentions of smiths that kept going but thats a digression:) 2 Quote
