DetailsHowever, considering the shape of his swords and daggers, and the fact that they are dated to the Shōwa and Gen'o periods, it seems reasonable to accept the theory that he was a student of Shindō Go Kunimitsu, as described in a Muromachi period sword book, and that he and Masamune should be regarded as complementary students. Norishige's style is similar to that of Soshu Kamiko Naka Masamune, but he often expresses changes in boiling more openly than Masamune, and his wares are characterized by the conspicuous inclusion of thick ground patterns on a skin tone full of character, which is called "pine bark skin. The workings can be seen on the edge of the blade and in the middle of the blade, showing the workings of the boiling that changes in a thousand ways.
