Default The artistry of Sam Kinemuchi

I have very limited info on Sam Kinemuchi.
Sam came to the US around 1970 from Japan, where he learned engraving. He worked out of his home, but also in Ken Eyster's gunsmithing shop in Centerburg, OH. Ken's son, Jim, believes Sam is still alive, and I'm working to get contact info for him. There isn't much on the internet about him.
Please PM me or post info if you have it, about Sam.
Thank you.
This is an example of his craft. I'm pleased to own it.
1914 Erfurt Military Luger
