many thanks, i actually found that signiture earlier today after searching a few books, page 125 of military swords of Japan 1868-1945 by fuller and gregory, it,s actually on a pic of a tang, the only thing diff is the middle character on mine is diff from the 1 in the book, picked up a short sword 2day so will post that 1 later, peter
