Longshot on type 44 translations

[MacTheWhopper]

I have an opportunity two buy 2 swords at a show, the seller isn't willing to take the Tsukas off of then but took some not so good pictures of them. I honestly feel like these can't be translated due to the quality but thought it was worth the shot. Amy help is appreciated.

Sword 1. Kanefusa - June, 1945

Sword 2. Hiromichi - May, 1945

 

 

For next time, it is easier to read if the images are not flipped horizontally (these are reversed mirror images of the correct orientation).

I would say sword 1 is 義房 (Yoshifusa)

[Ray Singer]

Agreed, Yoshifusa. I should have tried to flip the image first rather than reading it backwards.
