Hi everyone,

I have another katana and saya with kanji I need translated... I'm pretty sure the saya says 'Kanefusa' but I can't work out the two on the pommel.

Any help appreciated!

Great, thank you both. Here are a couple more photos (just taken on a cellphone this time), hopefully the quality is ok, and I think it's the right way up?

Sounds cowardly, but a brush in a different hand, and I could not be 100% sure. Seeing Steve post above, though, and with the circumstantial evidence already there,  I'll back him up! :thumbsup:

Thanks guys! I'll note that it could be Kanefusa in both places but with a caveat that we can't be sure... :)
