help with mei and inscription on the blade


Mark

Recommended Posts

i have a katana, suriage with some of the mei remaining. It also has an inscription on the blade,

 

Mei: I can make out a place and Ju, then Fujiwara maybe Kin or Kane Fusa, but with kanji following i am a bit lost

 

on the blade: i think i see Spring and maybe something about an event but can't make sense of it.  The inscription was there before being shortened and probably polished so seems challenging (at least for me)

 

thanks in advance for any assistance

Thank you Piers and Moriyama-san.  At least it is challenging, i feel better not getting it.  Maybe it was made at that Shrine?  Someone had suggested it was saying something about an event but the place may make more sense.  i appreciate the help
