    Hello Steve,

    May I come back to the Omori translation you gave me a few days ago with the simplified Mori kanji...(for which I again thank you very much)

    I found on internet  some tsuba by Omori Terumitsu but all with the normal kanji for Mori...so my question is    have you any idea why he used sometimes a simplified kanji?  

    it could be interesting to know?

    Thanks in advance

    Daniel

      Hello Daniel, I'm sorry to say I don't know why he used that variant on your item. I don't think there would be any deep significance - just a different style. It's kind of a rare variant. Maybe someone in the artist's circle (a teacher or mentor) also used it, or taught him the variant. Sorry I don't have any definitive information on this.

      Thank you Steve

      i am happy with the possibility that maybe he was asked to sign this way

      I found this on Internets probably there is another one with this style

      all the best
