I recived a old flute today...I already looked at the Database but did not found any matching picture. Hopefully someone can help me to read this Hanko. Sorry I got no better picture now.
Thanks,
Christopher

the top kanji certainly appears to be kun, or kaoru, 薫 meaning fragrant
bottom is sen 仙 as in a taoist immortal hermit type
maybe "kunsen" ?
just googled the kanji, evidently it's the name of a sake as well as a shakuhachi maker....

Thanks alot Glenn, I really laughed as I googled the Kanji and then a picture of a bootle Sake appears. It seems to be quite old cause the golden patina and the dark root end. I will search a little bit over the net. Thanks alot for your help.
