Hi all,

i am designing a new sword. On the tang i want to engrave the date in Kanji. Preferably like this:
Reiwa (period) Year of the Wood Snake. (2025)
would it be something like this?
令和乙巳

Hope you can help me.
Thanks
Chris

Yes, that is fine. You can also add 年 (year) to the end, which makes it slightly more complete (I feel), but it isn't necessary.
