Hey guys! Sorry this is sorta blurry as the owner only sent one picture. Any help would be deeply appreciated! Thanks!

Hey guys! Just have another mei I need help on translating. Traditionally forged blade with not much activity. Thanks again!

I'm a little new as well 😅 The nomenclature is a little erroneous, Type 44, type 3 mounts. Not entirely sure what the official model of these style mounts were called.

Hey guys, I was surfing through the market of flebay and noticed something somewhat odd. There was a type 44 mounted gunto containing a 1942 date on the mei. This makes me wonder if type 44 mounts were made before 1944? Otherwise if the sword is fake overall, it's pretty convincing! Just wanted to get an input from you guys so I can maybe learn something out of this!

Not mine, just a picture sent to me.

Hi guys Just found a star stamp and curious about the translation. Many thanks!

Awesome. Thank you.

Hello again, I would like some help from the experts and was wondering what's written on this Saya. Thanks again!

Wow thank you for the fast response

Hi Just another mei I'm having a hard time with. Thank you for the help!

Details...

Hello again! I came across another finding at a recent gun show with a beautiful signed fuchi. The Fuchi depicts a samurai riding on a rather ambitious looking horse, equipped with a sword, arrowsand gear while yielding a flag of the family mon. I was impressed by the meticulous amount of crafted detail! Wondering if anyone on the forums might believe if the fuchi is authentic or not, and if anyone might have more information on it. I'm also not entirely sure who the signature belongs to. Many thanks guys!

George I'm sure photographing a sword in 1982 would have been a lot different compared to our modern digital age! Not nearly as convenient back then. Again, much appreciated.

George your information is invaluable to me. Seems that Sadao-san had a rather elegant signature which he surrendered to the unfortunate standards and demands of war. In this respect, the nakirishimei seems to be a small tragedy. The comparison is interesting nonetheless.

Rotated. Sorry
