Caracal Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 Need help Is it anybody who can help me with signature on Swordsmith, Nagamaki about year 1600. Robert ロバート アンガー Quote
Jussi Ekholm Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 I am on a train and just with my phone but I would guess maybe 芸州大山住宗重作 - Geishū Ōyama jū Muneshige saku Better pics would be helpful. Here is one reference mei with NTHK papers http://www.nipponto.co.jp/swords5/NT329792.htm 1 Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 Something odd about that signature... even the first character for example which looks upside down, no? Quote
ROKUJURO Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 Signature and date look too deeply chiseled for a late KOTO. Patina is a bit strange, too. A MUMEI blade with a very late amateurish attemps to sign it? Quote
nagamaki - Franco Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 Chinese reproduction? That bo hi almost scares me more than the mei at this point. Quote
