Hello everyone. This is my first time visiting your site, so if I'm posting in the wrong spot or doing anything incorrectly, please let me know!
I was given this sword has a child form my great uncle who was in Japan during WWII, I was only able to meet him 2-3 before he passed but he left this to me and I have no real information about it, anything that you might be able to tell me will help! Also if anyone knows what is written in the picture below that would be great!
P.S. - I dont think that he took care of it very well when he had it, it was being held together via tape and the scabbard has some old residue on it from that.
