Bruce Pennington Posted May 21, 2022 Report Posted May 21, 2022 Any chance this is legit, and if so, who is it? I want to say Kunihisa, but the 'kuni' doesn't look right. Quote
xiayang Posted May 21, 2022 Report Posted May 21, 2022 毛利圀元作 = Mori Kunimoto saku The character for Kuni is a somewhat uncommon variant of 國/国. 1 Quote
Ray Singer Posted May 21, 2022 Report Posted May 21, 2022 Appears that someone cleaned the nakago in the area of the mei, but appears to be a legitimate Seki showato. 1 2 Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted May 21, 2022 Author Report Posted May 21, 2022 Thanks Jan! I never would have gotten the 'moto', but I checked my records under that name and found I do have another one. Used the same uncommon character for Kuni. This one from one of Mal Cox's articles: @Ray Singer - yes the poor thing was very poorly treated. I'm going to post it on the military thread. Looks like one of those swords that a farmer stripped and refitted for field work after the war: Quote
