stevel48 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Posted October 30, 2014 Working on figuring this one out but it looks like province and title First -Bo, or So or maybe Bi Second -Shu Third -Ju Fourth -Daijo Quote
stevel48 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Report Posted November 1, 2014 No signature found for any Sesshu ju Yamato smiths so far. Any ideas? Quote
stevel48 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Report Posted November 2, 2014 Any othe guesses? I can't match a smith at this point on the nihonto club mei database. Quote
mywei Posted November 2, 2014 Report Posted November 2, 2014 Could Yamato be daijo? No. Try Yamato no Kami Yoshimichi. Havent studied the mei so dont know if legit. Quote
stevel48 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Report Posted November 2, 2014 It looking like a possible match for. 城州住大和大掾藤原忠次 jōshū ju yamato daijō fujiwara tadatsugu Quote

Ian B3HR2UH Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 For what it is worth there is a smith Kuniteru ( Ku 659 in the old Hawley ) working in Settsu circa 1688 who had the title Yamato no kami . I can find no oshigata of his mei for comparison . Hawley says that he is the same smith as Ise no kami Kuniteru however this Kuniteru's mei shows no similarities to your one. Ian Brooks Quote
stevel48 Posted April 12, 2015 Author Report Posted April 12, 2015 NTHK papered the sword as Den-Seshu ju Yamato / no kami Sukemasa 摂州住大和（守助政） Quote
