I unfortunately can’t read it but most of the time it’s the crafter’s name or mark with sometimes location or steel used

Due Cigni (Two Swans) an Italian Cutlery company - who probably have had these made for them.
The correct way to read the Japanese kanji is by holding the knife point up.
登録 Touroku (registered)
The logo is a Tsuba (Japanese sword hilt)
関 Seki (As in Seki City)
鍔蔵 Tsubazou (brand name)
作 Saku (made by)
I believe Seki Tsubazou is one the brand names owned by Yaxell cutlery of Seki.
 
Thank you KenHash :^)

I was hoping for word of steel but looks as it's not available
Great work !
