MikeP Posted January 9, 2021 Report Posted January 9, 2021 Could someone please help translate these symbols? I'm not sure if its a date or smith, but I thought there may be a '7' and possibly 'autumn' or 'lucky' in there. I'm really just guessing though. Many thanks, Mike P Quote
Brian Posted January 9, 2021 Report Posted January 9, 2021 I'd be surprised if this was genuine. Looks like chicken scratches. 1 Quote
ROKUJURO Posted January 9, 2021 Report Posted January 9, 2021 Mike, Is that upside-down? Is that a blade or a NAKAGO of one? Where is the tip orientated? Quote

MikeP Posted January 10, 2021 Author Report Posted January 10, 2021 Thanks all, I'm fairly sure this is not an authentic piece but was still interested in a translation. These marks are on the blade. The tip is towards the top of the photo. Mike P Quote
Brian Posted January 10, 2021 Report Posted January 10, 2021 On the blade? These have absolutely no meaning. They're gibberish in any language. 1 Quote
Jean Posted January 10, 2021 Report Posted January 10, 2021 No one can translate fantasy marks.... Quote
