EdWolf Posted May 30 Report Posted May 30 If I'm right the signature starts with Soshu ju ... Can one of you help me with the rest of the signature. The picture is bad but it's the only one I've got. Thanks in advance. Quote
Ray Singer Posted May 30 Report Posted May 30 Soshu ju Shinki. There was an entry below but it appears the site is offline for the moment. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.nihontoclub.com/smiths/SHI961&ved=2ahUKEwinzuuJkcuNAxVnRjABHTQ3In4QFnoECBkQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0t6yOJA7jHE2tDcDmM8FmH 1 Quote
Ray Singer Posted May 30 Report Posted May 30 There is a Shinki documented in Sesko, but he was a Kamakura period smith ( which does not appear to be the same time period as this sword). 1 Quote
EdWolf Posted May 30 Author Report Posted May 30 @Ray Singer Thank you very much for your help! I agree, definitely not from the Kamakura period. Hopefully the nihotoclub.com is online soon. Regards, Ed Quote
