Dear All,

 

a friend of mine is handling these blades for an exhibiton catalogue. My knowledge of Kanji is insufficient to see more than: NANIWA JU GASSAN URYUSHI MINAMOTO SADAKAZU on the first sword and I would be grateful for a confirmation that the last two on the second sword are SAKA JU GASSAN. and the date is 1975?

 

 

Thanks for your time :bowdown:
