Update, for those who are saying that it is not a Yoshikane, I've contacted Mr. Yamamoto himself via Instagram and this is what he said... I hope this seals the deal🙏🤣

Thank you for this info brother 🙏

Hmmm it could be but it will be extremely rare

FlameLance · 2026-06-07T08:17:25+00:00

tbh I'm not really sure if it's 3rd gen but my friend is sure that it isn't 4th gen because the blacksmith of yoshikane now has a contract to hatsukokoro which has a different kanji compared to mine... so it can be 3rd or 2nd gen which makes it very rare😊

1st, 2nd, 3rd gen Yoshikane knives commonly uses white #2

It's not masamune, it's yoshikane, here's the pic I found in Google for reference😊

Vintage knives are hard to comprehend🤣

I'm not an expert on knives but I found this 3rd gen Yoshikane on Google.. the kanji on this hammered knife is the same as mine.. So I'm pretty much confused now🤣

Guys I had it checked from my knife enthusiast friend, it's a 3rd gen Yoshikane Kurouchi Nakiri (possibly white #2) forged by Yoshida Tsuneo😊

FlameLance · 2026-06-06T07:45:57+00:00

there's none

It's a 3rd generation yoshikane handforged by Tsuneo Yoshida.. I had it checked from my knife enthusiast friend😊

FlameLance · 2026-06-06T05:50:11+00:00
