    Steve Do you know what is the Ser# range of Mizuno?
  4. BANGBANGSAN
    Don't feel bad, they are right next to each other on that chart, easy to mix up.
  5. BANGBANGSAN
    I thought it was the Mizuno 水野 got canceled contract due to the poor workmanship.
  6. BANGBANGSAN
    Are the Tsuba and Seppa all have #4 also?

  8. BANGBANGSAN
    Bruce I'm sorry there is no photo of fitting,I assume is the normal Type 98 mount

    @Kiipu Thomas What do think this Kanji on the scabbard?𩋡 /鞘 for Saya ?
  10. BANGBANGSAN
    Barehand on that blade, likely will leave the fingerprint on it.

    @Bruce Pennington Bruce One more 昭和壬午春（1942 Spring) 興亞一心 滿鐵謹作 ウ（U)四一四 414

    It doses like island made sword, but the hanger is different than all the other island made swords. It could like Fuller says "Indian or native made wartime copy sold to allied troops".I never saw any photo of Navy NCO carrying a Type 95 sword, anyone?
  13. BANGBANGSAN
    According to Fuller, this is the Navy version NCO sword.
  14. BANGBANGSAN
    It has an old repaint as we can see, but I'm not sure about the Navy version though. Some scabbard of the copper handle has that kind of grayish color but lighter.

    Or hair of George Washington?

    @Bruce Pennington @Kiipu I noticed most of the numbers are 3 digits before 1942(昭和17壬午年）。 But there are one 1940(昭和15庚辰年）ワ( Wa) 1840 Autumn on Bruce's chart, it seems a little odd to me. Also, I was wondering why not many blade numbers over 1000 left? Maybe most of those higher numbered blades were issued to Kwantung Army (関東軍) and captured by Russians or Chinese and got destroyed?

    It looks like 冬廣 to me

    Here is 小野一刀流 https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/小野派一刀流 I think maybe 信田良男 is the owner not the sword smith who made this blade.

    For the video game, I think they did a pretty good job.
  24. BANGBANGSAN
    It's a video game

    I just notice there are 2 Guntos in Call Of Duty: Vanguard .Mission The Numa Numa Trail.One is Type 98 without the tassel ， the other one is a Civilian mount that has wavy Hamon blade.
