Aliaksandr,

that is easy if you look up the uppermost line on the page: NIHONTO INFO, then  RESEARCH, then NIHONTO KANJI PAGES, then KANJI for MEI.

First KANJI is  (SADA), second is 吉 (YOSHI). If you could show more of the NAKAGO, we could tell you if this might be a genuine Japanese blade. The way the signature is done is not convincing, but more photos will tell if I am wrong.

I ask the seller for more photos. This is not my sword. And the photos that are of very poor quality. Thanks to everyone who answered.
