Jude67 Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Greetings,can anyone help with this stamp.Any help would be appreciated Quote
SteveM Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Stumped. I've never seen this stamp before. I thought it might be a variation of 献上 - kenjō (dedication - as in dedication to a shrine or temple), but I can't find any variant of 献 that resembles the kanji in your photo. Quote
Nobody Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 That looks 別上 to me, though I am not sure about its reading or meaning. Might be "especially fine". (???) 3 Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Here's the picture righted Could we see the rest of the blade? Is it for sure Japanese? Quote
Jude67 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Report Posted June 26, 2019 I posted another pic if that helps.it's got a sweet hamon Quote
Guido Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 I’ve seen tokujō (first class plus / extra fine) on sushi restaurant menus, but never on swords ... Quote
Jude67 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Report Posted June 26, 2019 Here's the hole thing.sorry I'm not a great photographer and many thanks for the help and more pieces to the puzzle Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Ajude (could we get you to go to your settings and put a name; forum rules, but I like talking to a real person), Very nice, yes, Japanese. I'm adding that one to my stamps collection. Do you have a smith name and/or date? Quote
Jude67 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Report Posted June 26, 2019 My name is Rob I have no Smith names the only info I have is what I have gotten from the kind people at this forum.I'm working with a small phone and is difficult to navigate with Quote
