Hello,

I got this cute little tanto with intersting koshirae, it has writing (maybe a poem ?) on it and also on the blade that rather looks like a signature. Can someone translate it for me please?
thanks in advance
regards
Peter G.

Hello,

I have small wakizashi blade believed to be around 1500's, it has a 5 kanji mei , the 3rd is Kuni and the 4th seems to be Yoshi but I can not identify the rest with Hawley's, help would be grateful.
regards
Peter

Ladies and gentlemen good afternoon. You can Tell A blacksmith me about this? I have attached pictures mei. Thank you in advance to all who respond.

Good evening from France,
Here some photos (in three deliveries) about my wakizashi signed ( my reading) Yamashiro kuni ju Nobukuni. Can someone help with a comparison or an explanation on what the Kuni part of Nobukuni is an identification.
Thank you in advance for your help with your knowledge.

Hi,
I am the owner of an O-wakisachi (56.6 cm). In my illiterate ways I translate the mei as Yamashiro noKami Fujiwara Kunitsugu and I believe to read the date as: an auspicious day, ninth month.. and I am stumped is it eleventh year Kanei? I can not find any visual to confirm or not.

Hi everyone. Could somebody please help me identify the sword in these pictures. I can't seem to figure it out.
