QUESTION RE HZEN TADAYOSHI GENDAITO THAT ISN'T...


Recommended Posts

ALL - I AM SO TERRIBLY EMBARRASSED :bang: :doh: :glee:

Referring to this thread:

http://www.militaria.co.za/nmb/topic/29457-question-re-hzen-tadayoshi-gendaitoshinsakuto/

 

The sword in question is actually signed HIZEN KUNI JU NIN YOSHITADA SAKU KORE

 

A good friend actually has an early Shinto Hizen Yoshitada and when first viewing his sword I initially read it as TADAYOSHI, so conditioned am I (WE??) to read these two kanji as TADAYOSHI.

 

So, my humblest apologies for the red herring.  My question is answered, thank you all for those enduring the thread.

 

C'mon now, only one person PMd me about the error - how many really noticed it???  Hmmmm???

 

Best regards,

BaZZa.

the answer is much more simple then you ( eventually may ? ) expect.

 

maybe a question of picture ?- i but hard doupt!

 

the Yasurime are not cut professional

the Nakago shape is not executet professional

the Nakago-ana is " humble"...so far...

the individual Kanji look like stamped, and not individually ciseled/ cut out....so far....

 

maybe better pictures would releave more ? let us see.... :)

 

i but hard doupt! ;-)

 

( and we still have not seen the Kissaki, Boshi ect.ect...)
