An acquaintance of mine has a friend (whose barber knows this guy's uncle) who recently inherited some blades brought back from Japan after the war by his grandfather. He asked me if I could determine the smith and age of the blades and while the mei was simple enough to read, Echigo no Kami Kanesada, I am thinking this looks gimei when I compare it to some references.

 

But as I am still terrible at kantei, and because others here are more knowledgable and seem to enjoy it, I thought I would put up a picture.
