It looks like someone has committed the cardinal sin on Japanese blades and has cleaned the patina from the tang .

Have your friend shoot the kanji and the tang with the butt down and the top towards the point up. No sideways or upside down PLEASE! A clear focused shot of the kanji will also be required.
