Hintergrund
Der Meisterklingenschmied Bitchū-no-Kuni Heianjō Gen Sukemitsu wurde 1915 (Taishō 4) als Yoshijiakeshi Takeshita geboren. Er studierte zunächst unter Klingenschmied Masatsugu Okishiba in Osaka, später unter seinem Vater, Eitarō Sukemitsu. Vor dem Krieg wurde er zum offiziellen Armeeklingenschmied ernannt und gewann danach zahlreiche Auszeichnungen auf der New Famous Sword Exhibition, wodurch er sich als Meisterkraftmann einen Namen machte.
Klingenschmied Mitsukane, dessen echter Name Isao Kaneda aus Kurashiki-Tamashima ist, ist langjähriges Mitglied der All-Japan Swordsmith Association und wurde mehrfach für Ehren ausgewählt.
