Help with a Japanese Knife Maker’s Mark

    Hi Guys! Long time no see!

    Haven’t been around much, last post was Nov 18’!! Actually I haven’t picked up any new knives since then either.

    Which brings me to today. I inherited a Deba and Yanagiba from my Dad, pretty much unused with the factory microbevels. Little bit of rust but easily cleaned up I think. These were the knives he bought when he finally left his job in Japan so they should be decent quality. I plan on using them, but depending on the quality they may either be used as daily beaters or brought out only for special occasions. He has since passed on and took any info about them with him. Any help would be great!

    They look like good quality knives Kent.
    Wish I could help with the ID.
