Good Morning from Ohio, USA.
My first post and I am as new as new can get to this style of blade. I have collected Italian Stiletto Switchblades for years, however a family friend and I made a trade recently. The Japanese swords have always intrigued me with the vast history and quality.
I have the registration tag which is in Japanese. I used AI to translate it however I have skepticism in AI being correct.
Can anyone here translate the registration, and view the images and let me know what I actually have and its general value?

Hello;

I am new on this forum and also new in collection antique Japanese Blades, i have been collecting European Sabers and Gaucho Knives for a long time, but i am only starting on this amazing subject, so i would be really greatfull if you can give me some advice on two items i am really excited in acquire.

Hi friends,
I need some expert advise on dating my Wakizashi.
I am mostly sure it is Norimitsu, but would like to confirm this, and also if possible to date the generation, school.
My late father gave it to me when I started practising Kendo,and because I was interested in japanese swords since I was a kid.
It had been in his possession for a long time, he acquired it being a collector, but I do not know more details on provenance.

I uploaded more pictures under private collection item.

Any hints welcome.
Thank you so much

Eddy

Hello,

I'm trying to identify the signature on my Wakizashi. I am uploading the photos of the sword and tang. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
