Brian Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Please sign all posts with a name, or change your display name. Have a go. A few of those are very easy. Let us know what you come up with, and we'll fill in the gaps. This is not a difficult one, use the kanji link in the research section above. Brian Quote
Hayabusa Posted February 15, 2015 Author Report Posted February 15, 2015 Apologies Brian I know better than not signing my posts.. Oh dam ... What is my name? Steve Quote
Mark Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Steve Brian suggested you give it a try as it is not too hard. We can help if you run into a problem, let us know what you get. As a clue the first 2 kanji are the province (using the simplified Shu), 3 & 4 are the town, 5 is Ju resident of, the last 2 are the makers name. give it a try and let us know Quote

Gasam Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 hi all, I am also trying to learn to decipher kanji. Could it be Hiro Shige? (I have made the text white-ish in case others would try to guess. Its hard to read now.Mark it to see). I am not good at this, but getting better. Best Regards, Gard S. Quote
