That section in the blade, if I'm not mistaken, should be the following one:

Hello,
I'm Giulio, Italian now living in Switzerland.
I've always been interested in Japanese culture and art and recently I extended my passion to Nihonto.
I had the opportunity to buy two ko-Mihara blades and I'm now in the process of studying them.
Best regards,
Giulio

Dear all,
I would like to ask you for your opinion in regards to a Hataraki I'm observing on a ko-Mihara blade by Mihara Masahiro.
It generally looks to me as a Nijuba, but, as it seems to originate directly from the Habuchi, might also be considered as a Nie-sake or a Hotsure.
Now, I'm aware that bold and unambiguous definition are not always possible when discussing about steel activities, so it could perfectly make sense that an Hataraki originates, for example, as a Hotsure and then reconfigures as a Nijuba, but, as I'm pretty new in Nihonto studies, I would really like to ask for feedbacks of people with more experience.
Thanks!
Nie-sake, Nijuba, Hotsure or...

Thanks @Gakusee! At least this shed some light on that and is anyway a good improvement for me for interpreting the blade!
