Oliver J Posted January 11, 2019 Report Posted January 11, 2019 Hello Gentlemens Happy New Year everyone! Can you help me translate the nagako? There are two signatures. If you can also translate kanji on the saya it would be nice. Thank you so much. Best regards, Oliver Quote
kyushukairu Posted January 11, 2019 Report Posted January 11, 2019 Hello Oliver,The mei reads as follows:'A day in february 1573' (天正元二月日)'Kunitsugu' (國次)The kanji on the shirasaya just states the mei (as noted above) and then gives the measurements below 1 Quote
Ray Singer Posted January 11, 2019 Report Posted January 11, 2019 Unusual for 'nen' (year) to be excluded from the date inscription. The mei (and nakago) looks much more recent than the Tensho period. If you are considering this one, you may want to regard the inscription as suspect. Quote
Oliver J Posted January 11, 2019 Author Report Posted January 11, 2019 Gentlemens I thank you for your help and your precious time dedicated to this work. As always a good support here. Sincerely, Olivier Quote
