Akitombo Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 Hi, I put this in the fittings section and to no response. Could I please have some help on reading this Tosho script. Regards David.N Quote
Brian Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 I don't think it is script or writing...I think is ancient pictoral symbols that have been shown here before on the forum. Not sure this can be translated? Brian Quote
Akitombo Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Posted September 23, 2013 Hi Brian, I was sure these were debased or variant characters. Only going by the three or four which I have pinned down, perhaps that was more my interpretation. O well, move onto another puzzle then. David Quote
Brian Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 David, I could be wrong. But this is what I had in mind.. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14830 viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3147 viewtopic.php?f=15&t=12096 Can't accuse us of not covering a lot of ground here on the NMB :D Brian Quote
John A Stuart Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 Maybe some of these; 只shi (free) 屮tetsu (left hand) 入iri (enter ) 禾 (name element). It would take a long time to look up them all. John Quote
Akitombo Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Posted September 23, 2013 Cheers guys, That was very interesting, needs more time working on it. Of course, my tsuba could just be the result of a late night and too much sake! David.N Quote
