Hello,

 

I am new to collecting Japanese World War Two era swords.  I am trying to interpret the Mei that is on the tang of the blade of a Kai Gunto I have.  I have looked on different and web sites and in Military Swords of Japan by Fuller and Gregory with no luck and much confusion.  I find it very fascinating but frustrating at the same time.  It has opened up a whole new aspect of collecting for me.   However back to the point I would really appreciate  some help here.  I have attached pics (I hope).

 

Thanks

 

Bob T
