Two translations please (mei and tsuba (sanskrit))

[Drago]

Hi,

 

those two things are unrelated, just fyi.

 

First off, the mei. I haven't seen something like this before. So I don't even know if this is anything genuine. But if it is, what does it say?

 

Second: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261042581913 The sanskrit on the tsuba, both sides, what does it mean? Just asking out of curitosity...

 

Thanks.
