Hello all,

Could anyone translate it please?

Hello all,

can someone help my on this sword being auctioned on ebay right now, the writing on the tang does not look typical and also no arsenal mark, I am curious especialy what the left side of the tang writing means on the top around the tang hole, if someone can translate it would be apreciated.

I bought this ww2 sword on ebay )item: 380762660383) and seller said the blade has no chips, he used out of focus pictures and not shown the part where the damages are.
I pictured the edge, it is full of nicks, one is so deep the cut out steel hangs partly on the side of the edge turned out. He is saying it is minty for its age, but there is a lot of ww2 sword in mint , undamaged conditions and surely these are bad chips, and he said there is none.
Do you think he is wrong and misleading?
I want to open an ebay dispute against him.
regards
Peter
