  1. Thank you for the information SwordGuyJoe. Additionally, if you could answer these questions for my clarification please as I am not even a novice when it concerns swords. 1. When you state the this bears the "sho" stamp, are you referring to the stamp mark between the peg hole and the blade? 2. In regards to the "sho" stamp representing that this sword was not traditionally made. Traditionally meaning folded steel? Is this a machined piece? 3. This sword would not hold very much value to a Nihonto collector, correct? 4. This sword may hold some value for a WWII collector? I am just curious. We have no intention of selling this as if holds sentimental value to my father-in-law. I thank you so much for all the help you have already been.
  2. Hello. I am completely uneducated when it comes to identifying swords. My father-in-law owns this sword and told me that his USMC father brought it back to the states when he returned after World War II. neither of us know the history and this is why I seek your assistance. Please examine the pictures and let me know if you could shed some light on this. If possible, I would like a translation of the Signature, history of the maker and history of the sword if possible. This is very fascinating to me and I have been told that this sword will, perhaps, be mine one day.
