uwe Posted June 17, 2023 Report Posted June 17, 2023 Hi Hamfish, your second sword is “濃州関伊佐地兼弘作之” (Isaji Kanehiro)….followed by “廣光” (Hiromitsu) as the third! Addendum: First tag ends with “小林中尉” (Kobayashi, first lieutenant)…several readings for the name are possible! Above right seems to read “九山部隊” (Kuyama unit/corps/force…). Not sure about the reading in brackets “私物軍刀” (privat owned guntō)? Quote
