Surfson Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 The yoshi character is kichi. Last character may be a stylized nichi (day)? Quote

Lee Bray Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Posted May 30, 2011 Thanks, Gentlemen. I guess the lack of year confused me. First time I've seen that...anyone know of the relevance? It's on a sword signed Harima (no) Kami Minamoto Kunitsugu; the few in Hawley's are around the Kanbun era. Quote

It's on a sword signed Harima (no) Kami Minamoto Kunitsugu; the few in Hawley's are around the Kanbun era. Smith was lazy, drunk and forgot the year, or had a brain injury (the left hemisphere is the side with the ability to track the passing of time, and when it ceases to dominant, time has no meaning)....
