Interesting Kamon

[Stu W]

This kamon (mon) is on a sword I came across on another forum. I'm aware that it's (swastika) roots go back far before the development of the Third Reich and it remains in use in many religions today, notably Indian. However it's not one I've seen used as a kamon before so thought I'd post it here for future reference.

Hi Stu,

That's the manji kamon 卍家紋. If you google-image search those kanji, you'll get a lot of hits.
