was a Japanese swordsmith and was especially famous for making Tantō. He is the founder of the Soshu-den tradition. Usually he used suguha Hamon. The oldest date of his work is 1293. He was active during the Einin, Shōwa and Enkyō periods, generally acknowledged to be the teacher of master swordsmiths Masamune, Yukiimitsu and Norishige. This is due to various similarities in style and workmanship that indicate that Masamune was almost certainly his student. An example of his work is known as 'Aizu Shintogo' and is a Tanto 25.4 centimeters in length. He had several sons, who likely crafted a number of swords under his name. ==References== * ("Token Bijutsu" ) Nihon Koto Shi (History of Koto) by Dr. Honma Junji Book: Japanese Swords by Nobuo Ogasawara (tenth edition, printed 1986) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shintōgo Kunimitsu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
