I recently found a sword that has been with the family since the end of the war . It was given to a young boy as a gift from a U.S. Marine General. The Generals name was W A Worton and he was given the sword at the Tientsin China Surrender by Major General K Omoto . The swords nagasa is a large 32 inches with a ubu Tang . It shows signs of being a Kanemoto sword. Jizo Boshi with a Hamon of an uneven rounded Sunbonsugi . It also has togariba . The ji is a itame mixed mokume . I am interested in some comment. Thank you Geoff
