Identify this hanko please
This is the hanko on a non-root 2.0 shakuhachi I bought on ebay. It was rather inexpensive but plays nicely for meditative purposes. It has a utaguchi inlay and the bore is coated with a flat brown paint (lacquer), who knows. I cleaned it up with 0000 steel wool and walnut oil and put new bindings on it. Thanks much,
Jude

Re: Identify this hanko please
looks like maybe 巽 "tatsumi" "son", meaning southeast or in the iching/bagua trigrams "wind"(chinese xun)
