Yoshioka Inaba no suke often made sword fittings for the Tokugawa bakufu. Therefore, as was the custom, the early generations did not sign their work. Yoshioka had a branch line or bekkei but the name Inaba was only authorised for use by the mainline. Unlike the Goto family, the Yoshioka did not use figures of people.
