Hi Mark Taylor,
Yes, a 14 day Japan Rail Pass makes a lot of sense here. Basically all your trips are by Shinkansen and here is where the best savings with a pass can be had. Since you spend so many days on the train, Green Class will help you relax too.
If you want to save a bit on travel time, consider staying the night in Kanazawa and then going to Osaka from there the following morning, instead of backtracking through Tokyo.
Kind regards,
Daniel
