The name Hamatake should first be written down in Kanji characters.
If the origins go down to the edo period it may well be a referral to a fight which Musashi Miyamoto had on the beach. if older there might be another reason.
I would like to know his full name. since to check wether one has samurai origins or not is these days quite difficult. Where were his parents born?
which city, and prefecture....
to go into geneaology you need a lot more info than just his last name.
as for the Falx/Naginata....
here is the difference... btw a falx was used for hacking! and slashing.
an Naginata is used for slashing and cutting (as most Japanese weapons)
The Yari was used mainly for piercing.
Falx (Falcata):
NAGINATA:
