First, thanks again for your confirmation and help (slight correction) before.

 

Today I have taken delivery of a very fine (it seems) sho gunto with a very nice blade and a very poor mei. I think clearly it is No-Shu Seki Ju (blade maker) Saku Kore, am I right? The handwriting is appauling I think yes? OK, so I think I have all the dressing around the signature decoded, my eyes now rolling :freak: like the smilie you do not have. But can anyone please help me with the blade makers name :dunno: ? (Plus confirm I got No-Shu Seki Ju and Saku Kore correct). I wonder if this blade maker was special as there is no seki / showa stamp.

 

Thank you I hope in advance

:thanks:

Pieter
