Ray Singer Posted April 4, 2023 Report Posted April 4, 2023 The attribution of this katana is to: Osafune Yoshimitsu. 1 Quote
Francis Wick Posted April 4, 2023 Author Report Posted April 4, 2023 Ok thanks Ray it’s not signed and shortened so an attribution I guess but very specific to a certain Smith Quote
Francis Wick Posted April 4, 2023 Author Report Posted April 4, 2023 This is where I found it they claim it’s Yoshimitsu and dated but it’s shortened ? https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/art-japonais-katana-avec-koshirae-exceptionnelle--430-c-5ad4a6fb7f Quote
DoTanuki yokai Posted April 4, 2023 Report Posted April 4, 2023 I think the kanji used in the Hozon paper direct to a specific Osafune Yoshimitsu and the seller just give his main working period. 2 Quote
Mikaveli Posted April 5, 2023 Report Posted April 5, 2023 Google translate provides a pretty good start, to help you understand what the certificates state (if you can't read any Japanese) Quote
