Frej Posted August 10, 2022 Report Posted August 10, 2022 Hi, I found this Naginata blade (Muromachi?) in the local flea market here in Brussels, Belgium, and have tried to decipher the mei, but would be grateful for some help. Thanks, Fred. Quote
Geraint Posted August 10, 2022 Report Posted August 10, 2022 Dear Fred. Nice find. The mei escapes me but given the way it is cut and the proportions of the nakago I would expect Shinshinto for this one. Let's see what others come up with. All the best. Quote
Frej Posted August 23, 2022 Author Report Posted August 23, 2022 Many thanks for your help and ideas. I am awaiting some more feedback from other sources and then I will put it up for auction somewhere. Quote
Frej Posted August 23, 2022 Author Report Posted August 23, 2022 It is nicely cut and made. Like the traces of lacquer on the nakago. Detailed pictures in this link for the curious: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LDBuKTiWbkF6EjZYrv6n7XOJxGLtftWg?usp=sharing Quote
