Photo is really grainy so can't make out much. Can see ".... Mune saku" 宗作 Not sure why a smith would go out of their way to throw shade at a city in another country -
My condolences. An inspiring craftsman dedicated to his art

That seems a bit sub-optimal in terms of shinsa quality? -
From a purely financial standpoint, you will not recoup the cost of restoration/proper polishing on these blades if you choose to resell later, even if signature is authentic But if there's sentimental value then I'd say go for it

This is a lesser known smith so I can't be sure There's only one smith listed that signed with this mei in my references (see picture) - Yamato, Tenbun era, Sue-Tegai lineage Hope that helps

The mei is Nanto ju Fujiwara Nobukiyo I think Muromachi, Kanabo school See ref signature on this naginata - https://sanmei.com/c...ia/T221936_Y1406.htm
