Will be trying this one next...

Greetings all,

 

I'll be using the great Kanji Pages in an attempt to translate this one next....I'm suspecting there is a date and cutting test, as well as the Smith name. Wish me luck and thought I'd share - you all are far better at this than I and thought you might find it interesting .

clue, first picture left side is the date, on the right do you see Saku? if so the 2 kanji before are a name
