Dear friends, Here is a signature on which I block, I think to have the last two kanji but impossible for the first one ... The right part where it is about "Namban iron" is ok ! For the left part I read about the two last : 宗作 Maybe I'm wrong ? Many thanks for your help ! Regards

Dear All, Here my last purchase (on Christian’s advice, thank you ! ) : a maru gata with a pattern of six leaves. 6,9 x 7,4 cm Thickness : 4 mm at the seppa dai In my opinion it is very close to Akao or Kinai school, province of Echizen, but I must confess to a little trouble in my research … ! What do you think about ? Thanks

New 5 Volume Book On Tosogu
Akao replied to Grey Doffin's topic in Sword Shows, Events, Community News and Legislation Issues
I bought the first volume before the summer (thank you Markus Sesko), read it during holidays, and I also want to say a big thank you to everyone who participated in the project ! This book is exciting and above all very didactic, I recommend it to anyone who wants to begin. I'm looking forward to read the volume 2 ... -

Could Use Some Help With This Tsuba

So great !

Hello, I don’t know anything about netsuke, so I appeal to your knowledge ! Here two netsuke brought back by my great grandfather from Japan : he was a french naval officer and was in Japan circa1900. One of the two is signed, H. 5,5 cm each, I'm interested in any element about it (iconography, etc.) Certainly not master piece, he was better officer than collector ! Thank you for yours comments, Regards
