CurtisR Posted October 18, 2012 Report Posted October 18, 2012 This Kozuka was in the saya of a koto-period blade...I know the Chrysanthemum is significant, but am wondering what it means, as well as the inscription (may have to go to "Translation Help for that). The work is beautiful, and it has been well taken care of. The owner (before I met him) rubbed talcum powder into the kanji. I'm thinking he should remove this ASAP?? The theme appears to be an Eagle or Hawk... Any thoughts or info. are greatly appreciated. I suspect he'll be selling it one day................. Thanks in advance, Curtis R. Quote
