Chishiki Posted November 5, 2019 Report Posted November 5, 2019 Hi. I am trying to find information on this tsuba signed naganao saku or does it read eisho saku? It measures 8.7 x 8.3 x 5.5. There is a hozon paper confirming the mei but I cannot read the rest of the attribution. Any help to identify the maker or school would be greatly appreciated. Mark Quote

I tryed but I've been outbidded. Cheers. Quote
Chishiki Posted November 5, 2019 Author Report Posted November 5, 2019 Hi Mauro, thank you very much for translating the paper. I cannot find anything about this maker as Naganao, maybe he was a swordsmith or is an unknown maker. It is a small collecting world. I hope it is nice when I receive it. Regards Mark Quote
