Oliver J Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 Hello Misters, I wish to translate both sides of Nakago on my sword because i'm not a expert for Japanese swordsmith translation. This sword is buy in July 2010 to United States, I search for a long time but I found nothing... Can you help me? Please, looking attached pictures! I sincerely thank you. Best regards, Oliver PS: sorry for my English broken, I'm a small French collector WW2 sword. Quote

SwordGuyJoe Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 This is forged by seki smith Kanemune - I am not sure on the date, tough to make out the inscription. Figure late WWII (1943-1945). Quote
