Machine translation, like
DeepL or
Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

Shintōgo Kunimitsu (新藤五国光) was a Japanese swordsmith and was especially famous for making
Tantō. He is the founder of the Soshu-den tradition. Usually he used suguha Hamon. The oldest date of his work is 1293. He was active during the
Einin,
Shōwa and
Enkyō periods, generally acknowledged to be the teacher of master swordsmiths Masamune, Yukiimitsu and Norishige. This is due to various similarities in style and workmanship that indicate that Masamune was almost certainly his student.
An example of his work is known as 'Aizu Shintogo'. It is a tanto of 25.4 centimeters in length.
He had several sons, who likely crafted a number of swords under his name.
