Welcome on board of the NMB!

The maker seems to read MASAHIRO, but the rest is not easy to read for me, Without more and better photos I think it is a machine made WW II SEKI blade.

Hi Mike.

 

Have a look at this, https://www.aoijapan.com/img/sword/2015/15198-1.jpg In kaigunto mounts, look for a small stamped mark somewhere on the tang.  Jean is right in his comments about a WWII Seki blade.

 

Also have a look at this thread, http://www.militaria.co.za/nmb/topic/4151-kai-gunto-your-opinion-please/

 

All the best and welcome aboard.
