Who can translate please

ATTENTION Guys, http://www.armor8.com/ I received an E-Mail and visited the Page.Nice Swords for very little Money or better as Gift. I wanted to play the Game and asked to buy the Sokan that I remembered to have seen in a WEB Page of a serious dealer, same Numbers on the Papers ,same Sayagaki in short the same Blade but for much much more Money.(The right Money) They send me a quotation for shipping the Sword to Italy : 150 .- $ (!) I checked them shipping Price List and the Sword should weight 9 Kg. !! Something was " wrong with theirs PayPal (!) please send the Money to my Bank " I don't think PayPal know them. During this "negotiation" I wrote to the right dealer in the States and He,kindly, confirm that this Sword is still in California by the Owmer. Other pictures are stolen from Nihontoantiques.com. I think some of You know allready this Thiefs but other can fall in the trap. Sorry for my English. Akin

Thank You ,Moriyama, what do You think about thr Blade ? Vittorio

Sorry Grey , but I still think the Blade is much older-just the signature is from the War Time- Vittorio

Good evening,I'm an Italian Collector and I'd like your help about this blade. I think it is a Koto Katana ,Suriage , in WW11 mounts. I was able to translate 2 Kanji's ITO XX Saku.(??) I think the Signature was added later ,maybe from who cut the Nagako. Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance Vittorio
