Hi everyone,
I have a katana that I believe to be from the early edo/late koto period. The blade came with an accompanying Fujishiro certificate that I'm having a hard time translating. I've been able to work through most of the certificate, but I was hoping for help translating the two boxes highlighted in red:
For the box on the upper right, the blade is mumei (無名) so I believe the highlighted text may be in connection with an attribution?
For the box on the bottom left, the top two inscriptions could be information about the blade construction and the bottom two could be information about the hamon?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! I'm brand new to the community/collecting, so I have no intention of using the information for commercial purposes, I'm just trying to understand more about the history of this blade!
Many thanks in advance!
