MEI TRANSLATION

[takakage]

Hello,

i read bizen osafune tomonari yoshiuji

rigth or no ?

 

seems impossible to be an old ko bizen so a shin shinto smith.

i don't find any mei of this smith on a book.

Hi,

 

Maybe i'm wrong, but i read Bizen Osafune Tomonari Gojurokudai Mago . This is the other name of Sukesada.

thanks a lot Jacques, seems to match to go ju go dai mago

That may be ...

 

備陽長舩å‹æˆäº”å五代孫 (Biyo Osafune Tomonari go-ju-go dai mago) – a 55th-generation descendant of Tomonari in Biyo Osafune.

 

If the mei is genuine, the smith may be Sukehira (ç¥å¹³) of Bizen. He is the father of Sukenaga 1st (åˆä»£ç¥æ°¸) and his early mei was Sukesada.
