Peter and Bazza, I agree. I wonder why it may have been removed. Do you know of a way to read it again? Polish, acid etch, photo edit an image? Thank you, J

Hello and thank you in advance for any help that I may receive. My Grandfather was gifted a sword/katana after WW2 by a Japanese gentleman while he was stationed in Okinawa with the United States Airforce. My grandfather has passed away and my father and uncle have inherited the sword. I do not know much about the sword other than it was supposedly a family sword and was carried during WW2 by the man that gifted it to my grandfather. Note: the pictures were taken in a light box without any editing. The LED spots reflecting off the blade may not show how pristine the blade is. No pitting or nicks anywhere. Thanks for any info you have.
