  2. The name on the nakago is 兼氏 - Kaneuji.
  3. The last character may be 左 (sa/hidari) - left.
  4. “岩船郡八幡村大字八□□ – Iwafune-gun, Yawata-mura, Oaza …” is an old address, and the details are unknown. The address is now included in the following area. Ref. Sanpoku, Niigata - Wikipedia Tohashi – family name Hisajiro - first name I am sure he is no longer living. I do not think that sending it back to Japan is a good idea, unless the blade is national treasure level.

  8. I guess that 山本淸 (Yamamoto Kiyoshi, 1883-1960) is the Yamamoto Gonbe’s oldest son. Yamamoto Kiyoshi was a naval officer, politician, and nobility. His father Yamamoto Gonbe (山本権兵衛) was an admiral of the Navy. Ref. 山本清 (海軍軍人) - Wikipedia Ref. Yamamoto Gonnohyōe - Wikipedia Yamamoto Kiyoshi was living in Shiba-ku, Takanawadai-machi in early Showa period. I guess that the card was used before or during WWII. The first three characters of the handwriting might be 外務省 (the Foreign Ministry).

  13. I read the kanji as follows, 拾圓本    日可□    國 銀禾和    錢五東    戰 However, I cannot understand the phrases. They might be Chinese words.
