Thanks again Ray. Read that and the excerpt from the JSS newsletter  1992 Vol 24 No 6, pages 15-20. The article describes 10 known inscriptions, and this one of mine differs slightly from all of them. 

To my eyes, blade has attributes of being hand forged and Gendai. No stamps, no date, in special silvered gunto mounts. 

Would this inscription lead you to believe it is traditionally made?

Neil, did you ever get an answer on your ichimonji amahide question about your particular sword? I have a forged amahide signed “ichimonji minamoto amahide kin kitae kore”
