Need help with interesting mei

[EdWolf]

I have only one picture to work with and the quality is unfortunately bad. To my untrained eyes a part of the mei reads kuni ju sadatsugu. Hope you guys can fill in the gaps. Thanks in advance.

Hi Ed,

I'm not sure about the "kuni" as whatever is inside the enclosure in this kanji is obscured, with the name I've gone for "Sada" but it might be "Sane" (真) and also the number of the month (I think I can see eight) so I have:

 

大国住貞改文久二年八月日鍛之 - Okuni (or Daikoku) ju Sadamasa Bunkyuu ni nen hachi getsu hi kitau kore

 

At Okuni, Sadamasa forged this [on] a day in the eighth month, second year of Bunkyuu (1862)

木國住真改文久二年□月日鍛之 – Kinokuni ju Shinkai forged this in Bunkyu 2^nd year (1862) X month.

木國 (Kinokuni) is another name for 紀伊國 (Kii no kuni).

Moriyama-san,

Thank you for your help. I couldn't figured it out by myself. Your help is highly appreciated!
