    Just noticed One of my Copper handle 95 scabbard had these gold finish over the original army brown paint, most of the gold came off but you can still tell some the left on it.

    The last one of these presentations Gunto made by Chinese sold on eBay last year for around $600 if my memory is correct.
  3. BANGBANGSAN
    Yes ,didn't have to have the mint condition Gunto, it looks fine ,as long as it's real WW2 sword.

    some officer had their sword hanger loose like this...
  5. BANGBANGSAN
    That's possible too.
  6. BANGBANGSAN

    Thomas This is not for the Chinese Type 65. Not only becauseT65 has two rings of the leather piece on the scabbard, the one I showed has one ring on the leather piece, and it has an open space that allows the ring on the scabbard to go through. Also, the leather parts are too big for T65 and T32. Here is the photo of T65's.PLA might have copied the design of Type 95's hanger though.

    I found some photos of the leather hanger for Type 95, it might be for cavalry use.It's a little too big for Type 32. This style hanger is on Fuller's book P40. Nick has post price sheet of cavalry use Type 95 on here https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/Japanese-militaria/short-development-history-type-95-gunto-676112-19/ post #181

    It looks like 造兵刀 Zohei-To to me.That blade is in very poor shape.

    Neil Can you demonstration how it works?
  11. BANGBANGSAN
    Dave These two Type 32 do look nice but they are not mine. I use to have one refurbished 32甲 still has the leather spacer but no finger ring loop.Here you go.
  12. BANGBANGSAN
    Dave Many of those refurbished Type 32 also change the spacer from leather to brass one.
  13. BANGBANGSAN
    I think I saw it somewhere that says the black painted type 32 were factory refurbished。

    I’m sorry guys, I mixed up GI and GEI .偽銘 should be GIMEI instead of GEIMI.Thanks Jean for point it out.😀
  15. BANGBANGSAN
    They use real gunto fitting, relic the tang after carving the Gei Mei. Sometimes they carving the Mei on the real Japanese Mu Mei blade, sometimes use the Long Quan blade.
  16. BANGBANGSAN
    Here are some Gei Mei from Chinese Long Quan 龙泉, same guys make Mantetsu Gei Mei,not perfect， but they sure can fool some people.
  17. BANGBANGSAN
    True, especially for the copper handle NCO sword, mismatch or no number on the scabbard are more than match ones.

    Bruce Do you have this one?昭和戊寅冬 1938 N377
  19. BANGBANGSAN
    It's too rusty to tell the whole thing, first two kanji should be 昭和（Showa),the rest should year and month.What about the others side?It should have smith's name.

    John Thanks for correcting. 山野勘十郎 is professional cutting tester and executioner. 「江戶初期，有名的試刀家是谷衛好、谷衛友父子。衛友的弟子中川重良兼任幕府的旗本（家臣），他的弟子山野加右衛門永久被認為是最早的專職試刀家，據說他試斬了6000多名罪人。永久之子，山野勘十郎久英，不但擔任幕府御用試斬官，也負責處決死刑犯。也就是說，先砍了頭，再把屍體搬來試斬，他一個人包了。但久英的後人沒有能夠掌握這項技術，之後山野家被解除了職務」。

    I thought it was made Yamano Kanjūrō Narihisa 山野勘十郎成久. John corrected me, 山野勘十郎 is not a sword smith but a professional cutting tester and executioner.
  22. BANGBANGSAN
    This sword passed 3 bodies through cutting test. Yamano Kanjūrō Narihisa performed the cutting test.

    万治三年十一月十日 三ツ胴截断 山野勘十郎成久（花押） The on in the middle has same Mei
