Okay, I'm on a real computer now, not an iPhone.
本鍛冶町藤村藤吉
Hon'kajimachi Fujimura Tōkichi
Honkajimachi is an address in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. See the link for the Google map.
The last four kanji are the man's name: Fujimura Tōkichi
At first I read the given name as "Fujiyoshi" ... but it looks like Tōkichi is used as a given name whereas it is "Fujiyoshi" when a family name.
Ain't Japanese fun!
Anyway, Hon'kaji-machi has nothing to do with forging swords as I was thinking!
