Mike0820 Posted August 3, 2024 Report Posted August 3, 2024 Hello, could some one please help me with this translation. A local dealer has this sword for very cheap. Just trying to find out more before I make a purchase. Thank you. Quote

Mike0820 Posted August 3, 2024 Author Report Posted August 3, 2024 You think it’s the same maker? Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted August 3, 2024 Report Posted August 3, 2024 Just to help you with the reading. I didn’t follow the rabbit hole any further! Quote
Mike0820 Posted August 3, 2024 Author Report Posted August 3, 2024 Lmao I see. Thanks for the link! 1 Quote
Mike0820 Posted August 3, 2024 Author Report Posted August 3, 2024 Tired zooming in and adjusting a bit if it helps any. Not sure if I made it better or worse. Quote
Mike0820 Posted August 4, 2024 Author Report Posted August 4, 2024 Bugyotsugi, thank you. It did indeed help. I came up with “Musashi no Kami Morimichi Saku” was even able to find another sword for sale online by the same maker. The mei is almost identical. Here’s a picture of the one for sale online. 1 Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted August 4, 2024 Report Posted August 4, 2024 You should also compare the features of the sword, to make sure it matches with his style. Quote
Mike0820 Posted August 4, 2024 Author Report Posted August 4, 2024 When I originally looked at the sword it was in a bargain bin. Missing some pieces. Ie the tsuba and tsuka. And it was stuck in the saya. He said I could come back Monday and he would have It. So as of right now it’s a craps shoot. But for the price he had on it if the blade isn’t ruined I think it would be a great deal. At least for me. I’m not a high end collector and am still quite new to all of this. I’m buying swords as I go within my budget to learn more and work my way up to something a bit more of an investment piece. I will look at the blade and decide to buy it or not soon. If I do buy it I’ll be sure to post more pictures and get everyone’s thoughts and or opinions. Quote
