Hi Bruce, Thanks for all the additional information! I still have to learn a lot. Regards, Ed

Bruce, my sword has also the fat kissaki tip. Regards, Ed

Bruce, thanks for the information!

Nice to see an other sword with a label. Yes, the other side is unsigned. I will compare the tip of the blade tomorrow.
-
The tsuba and the seppa are all marked with the same number. Looks like 380.
-
This markings are found on the nakago of my navy sword. There is a naval mark near to the habaki, an unreadible label and some painted markings.
-
Will the presence of the label add some value to the sword or is this more a little bonus. Can this kind of labels also found on army swords or only on navy swords or is this more related to the manufacturer of the swords?

Some better pictures of my navy sword. The label on the nagako is unreadable. Does anyone know what's normally printed on the label? Regards, Ed

Hello to all, Let me first introduce myself. My name is Ed, living in the Netherlands. Sorry but my English writing skills are not very good but I hope this is not a real problem. Recently I became interested in Japanese swords. I have purchased an old Wahizashi sword. The tang is signed but I need help how to read the signature. Hope one of you can help me. Thanks, in advance. Best regards, Ed
