A farmer from Kamiyamada village, Hamochi district, Sado (The current name of the area is Kamiyamada, Hamochi machi, Sado City, Niigata Prefecture). In 1838, as the representative of the Sado province, he appealed to the inspector to express his dissatisfaction with the Sado bugyō , and was imprisoned. The farmers on the island staged an uprising in which they attacked rice shops and other businesses, but it was suppressed, and Zenbee died in prison in Edo in 1830 at the age of 47.

The meaning of k36 on the back of the blade: K36 is pronounced similar to the brand name of blacksmith Keizaburo in Japanese.

Blacksmith s Notes on this Blade:「善兵衛シリーズです。「廣貞」の刻印の打ち位置が面白と感じ入りましたので少し参考にしています。」

Translation:This one is a 70mm blade from the Zenbee plane series. I thought the placement of the Hirosada 廣貞 plane blade marking was interesting, I used it as a reference.
