New buy

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

so now i'm trying to get some information on teh smith who made this wakizashi. It is signed on one side Echizen ju and on the other side Iwami no Kami Fujiwara Nobuyori.

I think it is the Nobuyori who is working around the Kanbun period (1661 - 1673) see Hawley nob 571 and in the Nihon to Nyumon page 200 and 290

He was working together with nidai Shigetaka (shi 506)

So please correct me if i'm wrong.

Does anyone has any further information on this smith?

Thanks anyway, Yoshii

Grey's index of Japanese Sword Literature is a great reference work for those that don't have it. Belongs in every Nihonto library. Tells you in which reference books the individiual smiths are mentioned and where to look. Quite a compilation, and worth the (cheap) price it is going for.

Can be bought from AFU research here: http://www.afuresearch.com/doffin.htm

 

Regards,

Brian
