Nihonto flashcards

[Ray Singer]

Hi everyone, sharing another post for the kanji flashcards. I have received an additional order in, and the cards are in three study categories:
 

• Mei (names) - the more commonly seen kanji used in swordsmith's mei, including examples of mei containing that the featured kanji - 152 cards
• Kuni (provinces) - the reading of the Japanese province names, with information about the provinces and some reference information on related schools and representative smiths - 90 cards
• Nengo (time periods) - the kanji for time periods from the late Heian period to the present, with reference information on each time period - 144 cards
   

My hope with these is that everyone who uses the cards can have a better understanding of the fundamentals of reading Japanese sword inscriptions and kanteisho, and this will unlock access to Japanese language references for the study of Japanese swords.

These cards are now available for $25 each plus shipping. Please email me at raymondsinger@gmail.com if you would like to order a set. And if you learned about the cards through this post and place an order, I will donate 5% of each sale back to the NMB. 

Best regards,

Ray
