Kyle68 Posted April 1 Author Report Posted April 1 Thank you Xiyang! Any opinions from others about if it’s authentic or gimei? Quote
Geraint Posted April 1 Report Posted April 1 Dear Kyle. Obviously you will do your own research on this one and others will express opinions but at first glance this does not have the 'handwriting' of the school. As you look at examples you will note a particular style of cutting which is distinctive and I imagine hard to copy well. All the best. 1 Quote
