uwe Posted March 9, 2023 Report Posted March 9, 2023 Difficult to find a reliable reference, Piers 🤔 What I have so far: https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/Japanese-militaria/katana-sword-maker-757991/ https://www.proantic.com/en/display.php?id=1056450 https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/65814809-nihonto-katana-signed-komori-katsuyuki-in-edo-original-koshirae-tamahagane-Japan-edo-period-1600-1868 1 Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted March 9, 2023 Report Posted March 9, 2023 Thanks for the refocus, Uwe. You have a deeper understanding of this, and you may well be right! What you say makes sense, if that last downstroke can be hooked around left like that. 1 Quote
uwe Posted March 9, 2023 Report Posted March 9, 2023 Don’t embarrass me, Piers You’ve taught me a lot and I am trying to learn as much as possible, but still only scratching the surface when it comes to translations… BTW, this “hook” confused me for a while too… 1 Quote
SteveM Posted March 9, 2023 Report Posted March 9, 2023 In calligraphy, the bottom bit can hook back upwards. https://moji.tekkai.com/zoom/幸/page.html 2 1 Quote
