Hello, forumers
Again seeking your assistance to help me read a sword signature. This one bears a Seki armory seal, so it's most likely a 'showato', but its manufacture is really beautiful.
I'm sorry for the diagonal pic, at this point it's the only one I can provide, since the sword itself has not arrived yet. I'll appreciate your help with the transliteration and pronunciation of the mei.

Thank you, Peter!

Masatsune Amaike, sometimes recorded as Amachi, is a Seki tosho alright, although later moved to work on gendaito, this particular one is Seki sealed, so probably an earlier work.

 

I appreciate the help, once I get a 'readable' name my research is much easier.
