模 has the meaning of ‘in tribute to’, or ‘copy of’. (兼元Kanemoto？)

Oh, didn't see this post.  So that makes sense then.  Kanemoto didn't make this blade.  Someone else made one in his style "in tribute" to him.

I don't see the similarity:

 

You are correct.  I picked the wrong Kanemoto!

兼元 = Kanemoto.

兼基 = Kanemoto.

Yantolee,

why did you post this in the MILITARY section? Was the signature found on a military blade? Please show more images of the sword!
