Old World Bonji Symbols

Recommended Posts

Good Day to All:

 

The pictures of this handle are from a really neat acquisition a friend of mine has.  No sword just a handle.  The Fuchi and Kashira are very unusual though.  I thought others might appreciate it's old world iron quality.  I am not sure what the religious symbols indicate..  If anyone out there could shed some light on the meaning of these symbols, I would appreciate any thoughts on the translation of the religious symbols and also some  help with signature.

 

Thanks
