jason_mazzy Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Posted March 19, 2015 why kanewaki instead of kanewaku? Quote
cabowen Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 According to the Meikan, it can be pronounced either way... 1 Quote
jason_mazzy Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Posted March 19, 2015 Thank you Chris. So it is the same kanji, just different pronunciation. Quote
k morita Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 Jason, You need more study of kanji. Quote
jason_mazzy Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Posted March 19, 2015 Seki1570SK2,113, OT94, K79, NJ159 I noticed one of the lists is Gyobutsu Tohaku Meito Oshigata.(Swords of the royal family). Sato Kanichi & Numata Kenji.. I am not familiar with this book. Does being in this book mean you worked for a family? Quote
Grey Doffin Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 If I understand the book correctly and if I haven't made a mistake with my listing in the index, a sword by this smith was in the Imperial collection when the book was made. Grey 1 Quote

Grey If I am to understand this, Any sword in this book would have a drawing and a copy of the mei. Is that correct? Quote
Jussi Ekholm Posted March 19, 2015 Report Posted March 19, 2015 You can also find 2 examples (1 of them is the Fujishiro one) on Koto-meikan by Sesko. 1 mei also in Mino-to by Cox. Quote

jason_mazzy Posted April 6, 2015 Author Report Posted April 6, 2015 Tensho 3 Nen 8 gatsu August, 1575 Noshu Seki ju Kanewaku saku (濃州関住兼涌) according to sesko book, the three that signed this way are: Kanewaku (兼涌), Bunmei (文明, 1469-1487), Mino – „Kanewaku“ (兼涌), he lived in Seki, his name is also read as „Kanewaki“ Kanewaku (兼涌), Tenbun (天文, 1532-1555), Mino – „Kanewaku“ (兼涌), he lived in Seki, his name is also read as „Kanewaki“, Kenbōmidare, hitatsura, chū-saku Kanewaku (兼涌), Keichō (慶長, 1596-1615), Mino – „Nōshū Seki-jū Kanewaku“ (濃州関住兼涌), his name is also read as „Kanewaki“ So the one the is closest to the mei is the last one but he didn't start until 1596? So is this an early piece for him? or a later piece for the second kanewaku listed? The onlyone listed in nihonto club is http://nihontoclub.com/smiths/KAN2920 Quote
Kronos Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 Quote Kanewaku ID KAN2920 Province Mino Era Genki (1570-1573) Active Period 1570-1573 School Late Seki Source Rating Reference/Page Hawley 20 KAN2920 Toko Taikan ¥2.5M 145 Fujishiro Chu saku K79 Quote Kanewaku (兼涌), Tenbun (天文, 1532-1555), Mino – „Kanewaku“ (兼涌), he lived in Seki, his name is also read as „Kanewaki“, Kenbōmidare, hitatsura, chū-saku I think it's this one without checking Fujishiro's. 1 Quote
