    IMHO it appears to be a swallow:

    月燕 = Tsuki tsubame

    月 = Moon
    燕 = Swallow

    Further, I do not know anything about this...

    Regards

    Thanks for the translation! I was only sure it was a bird. Sparrow was an educated guess. I'll see if I can find anything about Tsuki Tsubame.

    Speaking of muffed up tattoos, when I was 17 I did something similar and got a Japanese lettering tat. Would like to get a cover up for it, however if it means something it would be cool to leave it, and add to it. It was supposed to mean love over hate symbolically or something. Would be cool to know I'm not walking around with something egregious on my body. Thanks for the help.

    IMHO
    恋 is indeed love
    and
    憎 is indeed hate

    So in this way this literally means "love over hate"

    Regards

    Not sure on the makers but on the top pic 玉鋼 is the kanji for Tamahagane.

    Hi,

    First is 寺正 = Teramasa
    (right) 寺正特撰 = Teramasa tokusen = Teramasa special edition
    (middle top) 特級 (?) = Tokkyū = special
    (middle) 登録商標 = tōroku shōhyō = Registered Trademark
    (middle, under) 寺正 = Teramasa
    (middle, lowest) 玉鋼別打 = Tamahagane Betsu uchi = specially made Tamahagane

    Second is a Yamamasa

    録登 = Roku tō (registered)
    ^^正 = Yamamasa
    請合 = ukea (guaranteed)
