Wakal Posted February 20, 2022 Report Posted February 20, 2022 My apologies for the potato-level picture. I was holding the display case open with one shoulder and trying to get enough lighting to at least partially show what we had. This is a blade in WW2 Army fittings, and we would like to dress up the display card with as much information as possible As always, thank you all for your assistance! Alex Quote
SteveM Posted February 21, 2022 Report Posted February 21, 2022 Hello - the same smith as is in the thread below 酒向兼茂作 Sakō Kaneshige saku (means: "made by Sakō Kaneshige) 1 Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted February 21, 2022 Report Posted February 21, 2022 @Wakal - Alex, any stamps above or below this signature? How about marks on the back edge of the nakago (tang)? Quote
Wakal Posted February 22, 2022 Author Report Posted February 22, 2022 I did not see any other markings...the next time that I have the case unbolted and pried open, I will pull the sword out and bring it into better light. I have no idea where the fuchi and tsuba went. People donate their dad's or grandfather's items, but a lot of things were...played with over the years! Thanks again, Alex Quote
