Moroba tanto. Translation is correct. I am not certain, but my gut feeling is that the mei is good. I would point out that the nakago appears to have been reshaped and is not ubu.

Short moroba tanto is one type of sugata seen in Muromachi Bizen. The examples I have seen were generally nice. A Yozosaemon was for sale in Japan nice long ago, which I believe we discussed here.
