Question Translation

[Omziginc]

would it be possible to have this sword tang translated, I have obtained a Wakizashi about 30 years ago from a friend of mine in Japan during my visit, I didn't even know it was inscribed till 4 days ago.

It's trying to be
摂津守源忠行
Setsu no kami Minamoto Tadayuki (Minamoto Tadayuki, Lord of Setsu Province)

but I am sorry to say it is a fake signature. Fake signatures are very common in the sword world.
