    I have this TH paper dated December 15, 2023. There are 日, 刀, and 保 marks as previous papers. However, each mark is not clearer than marks on privious papers. The each caracter now consists of small red dots and does not look fine.

    小松﨑納 – Komatsuzaki supplied. I guess that 小松﨑 (Komatsuzaki) is 小松埼茂助 (Komatsuzaki Mosuke) and was the president of 壽屋 (Suya Shoten).

    I think I could recognize each character, but I could not decipher their actual reading or meaning. Also, I could not find such a smith name. I can only show my guess here. 正翁子日壽於義弘舘鍛之 “正翁子(Seioshi?)日壽(reading?)” forged this at “義弘舘(Gikokan?)”.

    I am not sure but there might be other reading. 出雲國住中村余左衛門X 金左衛門 might be 余左衛門 (Yozaemon). And actually, I see 間 or 聞 instead of 門 in the mei. That is strange. I also think that 中村 should be read as Nakamura.

    I can read only 3 or 4 characters. However, I can guess as follows. 紀元二千六百一年 – Imperial year 2601 (AD 1941)

    I do not think so.

    There is a large space between “廿ノ内十六” and “久三” in the actual inscription of “廿ノ内十六久三” on the nakago. So naturally the inscription means 16/20 and 久三. As @Bugyotsuji suggests, 久三 (Kyuza/Kyuzo) might be a name.
