James Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Dont know what the characters say but it's a fake Japanese sword, most likely Chinese made Quote
Nobody Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 The date may be 永禄六年三月 (Eiroku roku-nen san-gatsu = the 3rd month of 1563). Can you show us the mei without marking? Quote
RERMAN Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks ... Still a photo of this katane. Quote
Nobody Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 I tend to agree with James. The mei looks strange. Quote
Brian Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Yep..fake. Deleting this post in another day as the pics are large and no use preserving them. Brian Quote
