Nobody Posted August 6, 2013 Report Posted August 6, 2013 I trimmed and enhanced your picture to read the mei. I think that the mei reads Norimitsu - 則光. Quote

Hello Guys,thank you for the response,i really appreaciate it, i will do the powder trick and try to get a clear picture,but thank you for that translation i thought the 2nd symbol looked maybe close to kanemitsu shinto blade,but from the images you done very well,thank you again Julian Quote
