Agree with Justin, "tetsu shu urushi nuri ressei men" with "kiritsuke kozane kebiki odoshi tare". Standard "Nara-Type" I guess! Regards Uwe

Nothing left to say...

Thanks Ian for confirming the date. I thought I was wrong, because the first kanji was hard to read. Ed, I think this is a typical piece to part with! But no worry, I will send you my shipping address Uwe

Hi Luc, you sure with the date. How do you read it :? Uwe

kaeshizuno and udenuki ana relation in satsuma?
uwe replied to doomsdaymachine's topic in General Nihonto Related Discussion
Hi Jussi, yes I`ve heard that the wont of the satsuma guys was a funky fighting and drawing technique :lol: The question is, was udenuki fastened through the kurigata to prevent the sword accidentally slipping out of the saya, or tying it around the wrist to avoid loosing it in battle (fencing)? Cheers Uwe -
The "lines" are very sharp and crisp on this kozuka. Very elaborate work, the pic can't judge. Yoshioka...... Thanks Pete Uwe PS: Actually I'm not familiar with kodogu
-
I think we have some similarities here Unfortunately, I have no clue about the school Uwe
-
Hamon on the last pic pointed towards Mino, I think. Furthermore, kasane on the mune-machi looks quite sound. This leads me to the assumption, that it is probably a ("lately") shortened shinto blade, like mentioned before. Uwe

Hmmm, reproduction (uzushi) of an kenukigata-tachi Uwe

kaeshizuno and udenuki ana relation in satsuma?
uwe replied to doomsdaymachine's topic in General Nihonto Related Discussion
Well, talked to a more knowledgeable guy today about the subject. He stated that this "system" was indeed still used in the satsuma region during the edo period! Although, there is a controversy to witch purpose? -
Me neither.... :? Will try again!

kaeshizuno and udenuki ana relation in satsuma?
uwe replied to doomsdaymachine's topic in General Nihonto Related Discussion
Hello Reggie, do you mean "kaerizuno" ? For the present, I found no special reference that udenuki were particularly used in the satsuma region. All I can contribute is, that the use of udenuki decline during the edo-period and the udenuki-ana "mutated" to ornaments on tsuba. Just my two cents...... Uwe -

Hi Ken, I`m afraid I`m with Lance. Almost sure that it isn`t an Ezo-koshirae The name Ezo-koshirae arisen in the Meji-period and means northern (emishi) mounting. Mostly elaborately decorated with typical carvings of the northern natives. Regards Uwe
