help translating (understanding) tag on a sword


Mark

Recommended Posts

could someone please help me with this tag.

 

i can read Chikugo kuni Aoki Omi Suke Minamoto Kiyohide  then ??? Kiyotsune, the sword is signed by both makers but i am nor sure if the ?? kanji i can't read has a meaning like son or same family?

 

the other kanji are  hard for me, i think it is the name of the person who surrendered the sword but it looks like 2 kanji are a bit obscured or crossed out

 

If someone could help me with the translation but also understanding what it means i would appreciate it

筑後國青木近江介 – Chikugo no kuni Aoki Omi no suke,

源清秀 – Minamoto Kiyohide

仝清恒 – dou (ditto) Kiyotsune

 

家寶(家紋付)- family treasure (with family crest)

内藤実恵 – Naito Jitsue/Mitsushige (reading?)

Moriyama-san

 

thanks! that helps a lot. someone had told me 仝 dou had the meaning of "same family" but maybe that was incorrect. I know it was made by both but i was trying to figure out of Kiyotsune was just a student or if it was his son and student.

 

I appreciate the help
