PeterS Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Dear Everybody! Please help me at this katana mei. I think the mei is Bizen (sai?) Fujiwara Tsunatoshi and the date is 1831 august. But i don't know who was this swordsmith. The 1.st gen? Thanks in advance for your helps and time. Peter Quote
cabowen Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 備前介藤原綱俊 天保二年八月日 Bizen no Suke Fujiwara Tsunatoshi Tenpo 2nd year, a day in the 8th month So you were quite close! This is an unlisted smith.... It almost seems like a bit of a prank- using the Bizen no Suke title from Koyama Munetsugu and the mei of Tsunatoshi, whom Munetsugu is thought to have studied with....
