A friend of mine just popped out of nowhere with a blade, and asked me to help him recognize it-

I can't read this mei, nor do i have an idea what this stamp is, never seen anything like it before even in the books.

I'm guessing shinshinto at the earliest, to meiji/modern, by the shape of the stamp (very precise and symetric, looks machine made) and how the blade itself looks. The nakago looks like it's a lot older though, so that's really throwing me off

 

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Not sure about authenticity, I'm sure more knowledgeable (shinshinto) collectors can help.
