Chishiki Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 Hi all. Can someone please help with the translation of this signature. I would also appreciate any information on when he worked and what group/location he belonged to etc. I can tell you it is late edo or most likely Meiji period. Regards Mark. Quote
John A Stuart Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 The first two kanji mix On and Kun readings to form Suzuka, and the next two form many with 'Haru', like Haruhisa, Harutoshi, Harunaga, Haruyoshi. I suspect this is Suzuka Haruyoshi. I have no data. John Quote

Baka Gaijin Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 Good Morning everyone, I'm a little perplexed, is the image the Ura side of a Kodzuka? Cheers Malcolm Quote
Chishiki Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Posted March 2, 2009 Hi, this mei appears on the kozuka, kogai and fuchi/kashira of a ensuite mount. Sorry I should have made this clear at the start. Regards Mark. We have no reference material for late metal workers. Quote
