    祐則 (Sukenori) Real Name: 永田 栄一
    Looks like he signed with his real first name then his smith name.
    Guy or someone else will explain all that soon!

      Bruce is right ... but the smith signed with his real surname, not given name.

      永田祐則
      Nagata Sukenori

      SUKENORI (祐則), Shōwa (昭和, 1926-1989), Gifu – “Sukenori” (祐則), real name Nagata Eiichi (永田栄一), born August 28th 1910, he worked as guntō smith

      Sukenori is pronounced "Sukay-nory"

      Cheers,
      -- Guy
