	The Japanese Swords of the School of Hizen Tadayoshi, Saga, Hizen, Japan
		His grandfather died in the battle of Shimabara (not to be confused with the Shimabara revolt of 1637) in Higo Province in Mar 1584 where Takanobu (1529-1584) also died at the hands of the Shimazu of Satsuma.
		Whilst it is possible that Tosa could have been ‘just’ a deshi, it is more likely that he was indeed an original high ranking family member for him to have been given the name Tadayoshi and to have signed pledges, because he effectively blocked Yoshinobu and Nidai Tadahiro from using the art name ‘Tadayoshi’.
		Although it is thought that Tosa was high level family, we may never know who he really was since fires have destroyed most of the Tadayoshi family records over the years.
