leo Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 As it is suriage with just 1 kanji, it says: DEN(school) SHINANO DAIJO TADAKUNI. Important is column 8 which says Inaba Kuni(INABA Privince) and (?)Ten-Wa Goro, (I suppose) which would be 1681 when the 2nd generation Tadakuni worked. Quote

Thank you Martin So it was the 2nd generation Tadakuni, who held the title: Shinano Daijo, and worked in the Inaba province between 1681 and 1683, correct? Or am mixing everything up? Sorry to be so dumb.. Quote
Nobody Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 The paper says that its era is thought to be around Kyowa (享和, 1801-1804). Then the smith may be Tadakuni 7th. Quote

Jean Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 What would we do without your help? Seppuku, Mariusz, Seppuku ...(please don't forget to put Koichi san on your last will) Quote
leo Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Sorry, Mariusz, thanks Koichi-San, indeed misread the first era kanji. You are right, if its Kyo-wa, then its 7th gen. No reason to commit seppuku though, Mariusz, . Quote
