I thought I had gotten pretty good at reading mei, but this one is giving me trouble. It's from a 1944 dated blade, so it's late war, and the mei looks somewhat rushed.

 

I am reading it as 包 則 - KANE NORI

 

It doesn't match any of the Oshigata I have found, as they usually use the 兼 character for KANE. I could also be mis reading the first kanji entirely. My second choice would be 正 則 - MASANORI

 

Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
