After the war, Kinmichi was granted the title of "Nihon kaji Sousho (meaning that I am the top swordsmith in Japan)" by Ieyasu. During the Edo period, whenever a sword smith received Kani (an official rank), he had to become an apprentice of the Iga no kami Kinmichi family, which had such great authority that no one could receive an official position without going through the Kinmichi Kinmichi family.The Kinmichi family had great authority, and no one could receive an official title without passing through the Kinmichi Kinmichi family. This sword is thought to have been made by the fifth Kinmichi because of the "Raijo" inscription.
