SwordGuyJoe Posted August 24, 2009 Report Posted August 24, 2009 All, I have a paper from an NTHK mu mei blade and I was hoping someone could help verify the translation. Here is the full sheet: The blade was attributed to "Mino No Kami Masatsuna." I cannot find this smith and I was wondering if someone could please verify that the translation is correct. They also translated the date to early edo. Is this correct? Thank you so much for the help. Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted August 24, 2009 Report Posted August 24, 2009 "Beginning part of Edo" is correct, but the Mei should probably be "Masatsune". Also the Tsukuri says "Shobu-dzukuri" I think. Quote
Jean Posted August 25, 2009 Report Posted August 25, 2009 It is Masatsune, the last kanji is the one also found in the lineage of Kanetsune Mino smiths Quote
