歴史 History During the early years of the Edo period (Kanei Era 1624-1644), the various groups of smiths who made up the Ishido Kei left Omi and split into three groups. These three groups moved to Edo (Musashi Province), Wakayama (Kii Province), and Fukuoka (Chikuzen Province) then founded own schools.Mutsu no kami Tachibana Tameyasu 陸奥守橘為康, real name Tomita Gorozaemon 富田五郎左衛門 who learned under his father – 1e Gen. Yasuhiro (Kiinokuni Yasuhiro) 康廣(紀伊國康廣)who was the founder of Kii Ishido school. They worked in Waakayama castle city first then moved to Settu (Osaka).

The second generation Tameyasu first named himself “Bishu no Kami Tachibana (no) Tameyasu 備中守橘為康” then” Tosa Shogen Tachibana (no) Yasuhiro 土佐将監橘康廣“, later “Mutsuno Kami Tachibana (no) Tameyasu 陸奥守橘為康“ after given a title “Mutsuno Kami” by the Shogunate.

This is a superb work of “Mutsu no Kami Tameyasu” with a beautiful Choji Homon which resembles to Ichimonji in the ancient period.
