Interesting Sarute Gunto


Julian

Recommended Posts

I'm not into the Militaria side of collecting, per se.  However, I feel this is genuine.  Always expect the unexpected with Japnese swords.   Why I think its ridgey didge is,  firstly, it appears to be a higher class gunto mount.  Then it has a Colonels Tassel (if original to the sword).  Next I would like to know who the smith is?   I have a feeling, that it is/was a decent blade.  Saying all that, the owner was probably a person of money.   Son why not have a personal surate made?

Here You go:

You are bidding on a very cool Japanese samurai sword or gunto sarute (tassel loop)!

No Reserves!! Goes to the highest bidder!!

 

Tassel fits nicely on a gunto!! Appears to be made of brass metal.

 

This sarute was acquired at a sword show in Tampa, FL.several years ago.

The dealer didn't give any me information on it but I just thought it's a cool sarute.

 

Dress up your Japanese gunto or Samurai sword now!

 

Buyers please take note Japanese shin gunto and

colonel tassel are not included on this listing! It's for illustration purpose only!

 

Also, please take note that this sarute (tassel loop)

is not an original sarute or loop to any guntos!! It's just an alternative and look cool on

your tsuka (sword handle)!!
