    John This Zohei-To doesn't look like it has 94's higher grade fitting, it more like 98 with solid tsuba.

    Bruce I mean I only saw one Type 30 bayonet has Toyokawa mark, there are many Bayonet with Jinsen and Mukden arsenal mark out there.
  9. BANGBANGSAN
    Sorry Bruce, this is the only one type 30 I ever saw has this mark.As far as I know, many subcontractor make Type 30 bayonet, they are all big company owned factory , no small shops make scabbard or bayonet blade.

    I mean Lida style Tsuba don't need larger cross Seppa, it's made into Tsuba already.
  13. BANGBANGSAN
    Neil Very cool Lida latches. I heard the metal loop on the Tsuba is for tassel? Not sure how it works.Also, I noticed the bigger Seppa(cross-like)of is made on the Lida Tsuba, So, unlike most Tsuba, it only needs 2 or 3 smaller Seppa.
