waljamada Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 Greetings all, Hoping for some assistance and thank you very much in advance for any help. The description mentions it was special ordered and wondering if this is reflected in the mei. The ad lists swordsmith Bishuju Mano Kuniyasu as the maker and mentioned as one with a small body of work. Anyone heard of this smith? Please see photos below. 1 Quote
xiayang Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 Hi Adam, the mei reads: 尾州住真野国泰鍛造之 = Mano Kuniyasu, resident of Bishū forged this 堀場好明佩帯之 = Horiba Yoshiaki owns this (literally: wears this on his belt). 5 1 Quote
