Matsunoki Posted April 6, 2024 Report Posted April 6, 2024 Mei reads Nobukuni. I do like these hirazukuri thin blades with strong sori and Hi. 1 Quote
Rivkin Posted April 6, 2024 Report Posted April 6, 2024 Its a relatively large wakizashi with a lot of sori, curvature is not koshi-zori (sometimes you see large waki early but they tend koshi-zori), so its likely somewhat late. 1500? Nobukuni lineage did make those, nakago can be, signature can be (large squarish kanji), but Nobukuni signature is one of the most faked in koto so need to look at work. Quote
