While I was in Baltimore, I picked up a set of 3 Dadao from a dealer; each one is unique in its own way. I started cleaning one of them and to my surprise, I noticed some Chinese characters on the blade; on the other side of the sword where some drawings that are unrecognizable.
Can anyone translate these characters?
