This "B" and sometimes in this case 2 "B's are balance points.
One "B" is the balance point for the blade itself, the other for the assembled sword. B's on the spine only have one meaning and it is balance point.
Look carefully and you may see a line through the B

Thanks a lot for clearing that up Will!
