Help with mei please.

Hello and good evening. I hope this works out as planned. I am looking for help with a mei translation and the only way I could figure out to upload the picture of it is to attach the link to my photobucket below. Thanks so much and please let me know of any issues with this.- - Scott M.

Thank you so much! Would this be a shin shinto smith? I ask because the blade in question still has some ubu ha and looks really healthy still. Gimei?

This Sukesada is quite famous and worked much earlier than Shinshinto. I think yours is gimei.
