Pika007 Posted July 16, 2016 Report Posted July 16, 2016 A friend of mine just popped out of nowhere with a blade, and asked me to help him recognize it- I can't read this mei, nor do i have an idea what this stamp is, never seen anything like it before even in the books. I'm guessing shinshinto at the earliest, to meiji/modern, by the shape of the stamp (very precise and symetric, looks machine made) and how the blade itself looks. The nakago looks like it's a lot older though, so that's really throwing me off Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Quote
mywei Posted July 16, 2016 Report Posted July 16, 2016 (Suishinshi) Masahide + kokuin Not sure about authenticity, I'm sure more knowledgeable (shinshinto) collectors can help. Quote
Pika007 Posted July 16, 2016 Author Report Posted July 16, 2016 I'll ask in the nihonto forum then Thanks for helping me recognzie the signature. the "masa" is rather squashed here, didn't manage to read it Quote
