Namban Iron Tsuba Mei

[Akao]

Dear friends,

 

Here is a signature on which I block, I think to have the last two kanji but impossible for the first one ...

 

The right part where it is about "Namban iron" is ok !

 

For the left part I read about the two last :  宗作

 

Maybe I'm wrong ? 

 

Many thanks for your help !

Regards
