Happy new year everyone, may your realistic wishes come true! I am wondering if anyone can help me identify by which sword smith this wakizashi was made. I have the following info: Kanewaka of Kaga Province and is dated 1656. Is Kanewaka the sword smith? There are multiple entries for kanewaka in the data base, but I am thinking this one: KAN2899. Is that correct? If so than this is the 2nd gen kanewaka (http://www.japaneseswordindex.com/kanewaka.htm)...? "Kashu ju Kanewaka" 賀州住兼若 What does the kanji on the other side translate to...? Thanks for your help, Chris |

Ok guys again forgive me if this is a dumb question. But do you think you can trust the military WII Nco Gunto's on ebay coming out of japan. I want to start adding some of these to my military collection but do not wanna lose money on a fake.so i need your opinions some are showing a signed tang. |

Hello. I recently acquired this bizen katana. I ask for a little help from my friends of nihonto club to determine exactly the swordsmith (omote) and date (ura). Thanks !!!! |

Dear friends, please your help to identify this wakizashi swordsmith. Best regards, Pilgrim |

Hey guys! Can someone tell me which Fujiwara this is? My buddy picked this up last week. It's not dated, so I'm not sure which one made it. |

I have this wakizashi that I would like to get some feed back on. cheers keven |

I was recently gifted a katana and would appreciate any help in translating the name of the swordsmith on its oshigata. I have already translated the date shown on the left (Showa, 20th year, February), but have been unsuccessful in translating the swordsmith's name on the right. Any help would be appreciated. |
