Hello all,
Having just had a sword papered to Kaga kagemitsu (Fujishima school) I was hoping someone could point me to some oshigata resource for this smith.

Hi Peter, Index of Japanese

Hi Peter,

Index of Japanese Sword Literature is always a good place to start: http://www.jssus.org/ijsl/?&display=table&document=tutorial&table=smiths...

if you search for Kagemitsu, it will give you the following references:

  1. Nihonto Koza 2, p.360,365-6
  2. Nihonto Zuikan p.468
  3. Nihon-To Jiten p.149
  4. Zuikan Tomei Soran p37
  5. Nihon Toko Jiten p.143,
  6. Nihonto Taikan p.3,83&66

I have 1, 2 and 5. Let me know if you need them and I can take some photos over weekend.
