Had to get you on that one...turn's out the maker was famous for his short swords, a famous Samurai, after being attacked one night by an assassin, killed him with a single blow of his short sword that was made by this sword master, and as a result, his style of short short was nicknamed, "the devil's kitchen knife" - yikes!

You seem to be quite interested in it, Andrew! Did you get that one from Bruno?

Yes - I had four pieces of this antique tamahagane steel, and Bruno agreed to help make a project out of them.
You can read the construction of them here, been a fascinating and fun exercise:

Hi Rockabillyhelge,
師範用 shihanyou (for professionals) it might sound as "for barber's use"
だ
い DAIRI
り
新刀 shinto - not the religion
新 (shin) means NEW and 刀 (to or also katana) means BLADE, so NEW BLADE.
Maybe it is a kamisori with a new blade shape.
Hope this helps.
