Background
Tsunahiro is said to have been the son of Shimada Yoshisuke and is believed to have originated from the Shimada school of swordsmiths. He initially signed his works as Masahiro.
In the late Muromachi period, he was summoned by Hōjō Ujitsuna to Odawara, where he forged swords in his service. It is said that he was granted the character “Tsuna” from Ujitsuna’s name, after which he changed his name to Tsunahiro.
The Tsunahiro lineage continued for more than ten generations, lasting until the late Edo period.
