Hi Gents

 

I recently acquired a gendai tsuba and was wondering if anyone could translate the mei for me. I cant make out tge characters very well as they are pretty small. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tagayasu Naitō of Musashi province made this from steel. Musashi is the classic name for the area where Tokyo is located. There are multiple possible readings for the given name. The date is 1990 (Heisei 2, September).
