ECHIZEN - CHIYOZURU KUNIYASU School
CHIYOZURU Group: ITAME with MASAME mixed. JI-NIE. RAI influence
falls with the NAMBOKUCHO to the teachings of KAGA SANEKAGE.
Therefore, possibly the earlier SUGU-MIDARE BA with valleys but
usual theme is based on GUNOME-MIDARE SUNAGASHI. 4th MORIHIRO
becomes more elaborate with GUNOME O-MIDARE TOBI and SUNAGASHI.
TSURUGA: Named for the TSUNO, - horned Koreans
who invaded in the time of SUJIN-TENNO.

KAGAandECHIZEN border one another
and were mutual stepping-stones in the
historical paths of some sword families.

FUJISHIMA TOMOSHIGE(3) O-EI 1394
TOMOSHIGE(1) TEI-WA (t: RAI KUNITOSHI): FUJISHIMA JU. So many
went that SANEKAGE's KAGA became known as FUJISHIMA
School. See KAGA. From SHO-CHU 1324 to TEI-WA 1352. His
CHU-KISSAKI TACHI was KOSHIZORI. Look for FUNBARI. A
raised SHINOGI gives an impression of YAMATO. MASAME
forces the grain to run. JI-NIE. NIE-DEKI GUNOME is
KO-MIDARE. His descendants nuzzle SANEKAGE and become the
backbone at KAGA. See KAGA
MEI: TOMOSHIGE
FUJISHIMA TOMOSHIGE
KUNIYASU(1) TEI-JI (t: NAKAJIMA RAI KUNIYASU): Transferred in to
create the ECHIZEN RAI. CHIYO TSURU-MARU, his infant
name, became the school flag and humorous reference to
the relation of his teacher. His exact dates are in
speculation, but seem to fall between TEI-JI 1362 to
KA-KEI 1387. KUNINAGA(1) worked during the NAMBOKUCHO,
KUNINAGA(2), in O-EI - one should pay close attention to
SUGATA for accuracy when placing date. MOKUME with
MASAME. SUGUHA and GUNOME HA. First signed: MITSUTADA
MEI: KUNIYASU
ESSHU JU KUNIYASU
KUNIYASU(2) O-EI: SUGU GUNOME-MIDARE HA.

1455. MOKUME with MASAME. SUGU KO-MIDARE GUNOME-MIDARE.
MEI: ESSHU MORISHIGE
CHIYOZURU MORIHIRO(1) BUN-WA (f: RAI KUNIYASU): KAMOJIRO. SUGUHA
and GUNOME KO-MIDARE HA.
MEI: MORIHIRO
MORIHIRO(2) SHI-TOKU: CHIYOZURU. ITAME of MASAME with JI-NIE.
NIE-DEKI GUNOME-MIDARE HA with SUNAGASHI.

and about the HABUCHI. KINSUJI sails flowing SUNAGASHI.

ECHIZEN RAI Creates ECHIZEN CHIYOZURU and KAGA FUJISHIMA
MORIHIRO(4) KA-KICHI: TOZAEMON. CHIYOZURU. Wide and curved
MUROMACHI style HIRA-TSUKURI KO-WAKIZASHI. JI-NIE on
MASAME pulled ITAME. NIE dresses GUNOME O-MIDARE HA where
TOBI-YAKI dances over SUNAGASHI.
MEI: MORIHIRO
TOZAEMONnoJO MORIHIRO
MORIHIRO(1) O-EI (f: CHIYOZURU MORIHIRO 2): MORI: SHIN "Forest."
There is some confusion between published dates and
generational sequence for these smiths. Both very
similar relationships are included here. SHIRA-KE
ITAME from MASAME. MURA KO-NIE makes up GUNOME-MIDARE
CHOJI BA with SUNAGASHI.
MEI: MORIHIRO
MORIHIRO EI-SHO (f: TOZAEMON MORIHIRO): MORI form: SHIN "Forest."
MOKUME is drawn. Profuse KO-NIE GUNOME-TOGARI BA would
be expected.
MEI: ECHIZEN-no-KUNI MORIHIRO
MORIMUNE MEI-O (f: MORIHIRO): GUNOME-MIDARE BA with SUNAGASHI.
MEI: MORIMUNE
