Thank you very much!!

It looks like it may be 廣光 Hiromitsu. John

I would also go for Hiromitsu.

Hello,

 

I am asking because I think this tanto can be bought here in Vienna.....

Anyway, nice blade, nice Koshirae... - Kogatana is signed Yamaguchi Mondo no Sho Masakiyo 山口主水正正清 (for sure gimei )

By the way, I have seen this kind of Koshirae already here on the board, but can´t remember where exactly....
