4 characters on a tanto

[Turbo storm]

I have tried going through all my character sheets, and think I have Nami no Hira? I am unable to figure out the remaining two characters, or how all four go together.

 

Any help is much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

Can you get much closer to the characters, and get them maybe two at a time, from different lighting angles?

I will try that tomorrow.

Hi

 

技平上衣 ?

 

Waza....something?

My guess is ............

波平安在 - Naminohira Yasuari

The kanji is stamped very lightly, and it is hard to get a good rubbing from it. I copied the characters as closely as possible in the picture attached in my first post. I will attampt some additional photos tonight to help out.

 

Thanks for everything so far!

Hi,

 

Maybe Naminohira Sumiyasu 浪平住安 (without any certainty).

The rubbing is almost impossible to see, and copying the characters does not really help unless you know Kanji inside and out. It will really come down to those shots. The shadows should provide some definition. Try lighting from each of eight directions, and gently angled shots!

Thanks for the advise! I will try that.
