Appreciate the help gentlemen. Got the sword for a decent price without knowing a lot about it. Most everything seems to be there. The tsuba seems to be a little loose. Don’t know if that’s common? The blade is starting to show some staining but I’m not even gonna attempt to polish it lol. Appreciate the assistance once again!!!

Can anyone give me a hand on deciphering the MEI on the tang. I have found the arsenal stamp is from showa period. This is my first sword purchase and just looking to find out more. Appreciate any help provided!
