Nobody Posted August 10, 2010 Report Posted August 10, 2010 Morita san, are you really sure that it is not Kinkasan? It still looks Kinkasan/Kinkazan (金華山) to me. Ref. another kogatana with Kiyonaga mei http://lll.pro.tok2.com/sword/sdata64/gdk351b.htm Quote

Lindus Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Posted August 10, 2010 My grandmother said them ancient Corns were a strange lot...they dug tunnels and built chimneys everywhere! :lol: George, Hobbits or dwarves??? Ask Granny about the Bretons, Brittany is about the same..............but we do have a good Ko Katana or two dont we......................... Quote
george trotter Posted August 11, 2010 Report Posted August 11, 2010 I know the Bretons were Britons so probably had the same "little people" activities, but I have to be careful who I call Dwarfs or Hobbits as they are all Celtic, with strange powers...my own Scottish (Galloway) GG grandmother was only 1.2m tall and her neighbours all said she was descended from a race of Trolls and Faeries... *edited by Admin* Regards, George.
