Ronin 47 Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Hi, I need some help on this mei. Any help is greatly appreciated. Austin http://img58.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nakago78vi2.png Quote
dkirkpatrick Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Well I think its pretty certain that it reads: SAGAMI KUNI JUNIN HIROMITSU the question is shoshin or gimei. I think it looks not to bad from some of the examples I've seen but their is so much variation in these old mei and I am sure much more experienced eyes than mine on this board will have some thoughts. The work of course is what's key. Now c'mon, ya can't drop a mei like that on us without some detailed sword pics! Cough 'em up! :D Quote
Ronin 47 Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Posted February 10, 2007 Well I only got one pic right now. Thanks again for any help. http://img167.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sword57yp5.png Quote
dkirkpatrick Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Thats a good start although it would be nice to see the rest of it. Will it be for sale at some date? Quote
Ronin 47 Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Posted February 10, 2007 After further research I believe that the mei might be gimie. Also the work on the whole reminds me more of Norishige or some one who works in his style. Heres another pic , more to come later. http://img263.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sword11of3.jpg Quote
Ronin 47 Posted February 11, 2007 Author Report Posted February 11, 2007 Here are some more pics of the blade. If anybody has any idea of what it is I would like to hear them.
