Assistance needed identifying a smith

[Rick J.]

Please take a look at this photo. It is a blade that is being looked at for purchase, but I do not have the extensive kanji knowledge and resources of most of you on this forum. Any help identifying this smith is greatly appreciated.

It has a billowing hamon, yakote is minor, almost indiscernible.


Please excuse the photo quality, I only had my phone at the time.

The two kanji to the furthest right read, I think, KaneMitsu.
Can't make out the others because of the quality.

[J. Ottaway]

I think it's HIROmitsu

Some clearer photos. Thank you for your help so far.

I can't make out the first kanji, so; ?戸廣光. Hiromitsu is correct. John

It might be 井戸 which would be Ido Hiromitsu.

The kanji that you have chosen appears to be what is on the sword. Thank you for your help!!! Now for some research....
