I have a few of his blades on file, and few of them have been re-mounted like this one.  Wonder why.

 

Paris,

Any dots at the end of the nakago?

No dots visible Bruce.

Thanks for checking, Paris.  Most on file don't either, but one does, so worth checking!

He lists these two.  Don't know which is your guy:

MASAYUKI (正行), Shōwa (昭和, 1926-1989), Ōsaka – “Ikeda Masayuki kore o saku” (池田正行作之), “[Swastika] Masayuki” (卍正行), real name Ikeda Tatsuo (池田辰男), born November 20th 1938, he studied from 1954 under his father Masahisa (正久) (see picture right)
MASAYUKI (正行), Shōwa (昭和, 1926-1989), Gifu – “Masayuki” (正行), real name Miwa Tomoo (三輪友雄), born August 8th 1895, he worked in Seki as guntō smith

The first one seems too young (born in 1938...) so I suppose it is the second one? And no mentioning about "Mino Kuni"? Anyone knows?

Got confirmation that it is this one.

 

Gifu is the modern prefecture name of Mino.
