Seeking the full text and translation of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Hunting Knife Order

Sword hunting is a law in Japanese history, which was first implemented by Shibata Katsuie before the Vietnam War, mainly to confiscate weapons from farmers. Its purpose is to completely separate soldiers from farmers, in fact, to prevent the occurrence of a slap and strengthen the rule of the people. This makes the identity class of Japanese samurai and common people more stable. In 1588, Toyotomi Hideyoshi issued an inauguration order with a sword to the whole country, and all the confiscated weapons were used to shape the nails of the Dongshan Buddha Hall in Kyoto.
