  1. White Russian unit hold the Type 32甲 Cavalry sword.
  2. Steve, Thanks for the correction.
  3. Surrender tag Left row-價格一四伍(0)円 Price 145(0) Yen 荒卷良太郎 Aramaki ryo taro Right Row-三潴郡大莞村一代溝(Mizuma gun ooimura ichi dai mizo in Fukuoka 福岡県) The price kind of looks like 1450, but that would be way too expensive for a Showa blade at the time,I think 145 is more reasonable.
  4. Maybe try to copy the Ser# style on type 32's scabbard?
  5. Saw these photos of a fake Type 95. The painted handle and scabbard color look very nice, even though there were still some parts not correct compared to the real one, but it will fool a lot of people for sure.

  7. Both 研師-Polisher and 刀匠-Swordsmith has the title and full name written down. I think my idea-調之 adjusted this make sense.
  8. Neil Take a look at my reply, and see what do you think about my idea about 調之
  9. Maybe we should look from a different angle. 石德調之。Seems to be Ishitoku adjusted this. 調 could be 調整 調准-Adjustment This 石德 maybe just a craftsman made some adjustment for this sword instead of a professional swordsmith.And that's why can't find him in the Showa swordsmith list.
  10. It looks like a Chinese made up piece to me.
  11. Chinese fake
  12. I used to have a shorter Gunto.
  13. Bruce It's not one of my Mantetsu.
  14. Anyone check your Mantetsu scabbard before? I never knew there is a number on the scabbard that match the number on the back of the tang until saw this photo today.
  15. The photos of mark is still not clear enough
  16. The stamp is not clear enough. I can read some of it Right:久留米市西町花(田?) Middle:特許出願中 Left:田中(政?)之(助?)(君?) The better photo will help.
  17. That Tsuba looks like modified NCO 's
  18. Bruce Thanks for the comparing photos and welcome back.
  19. I hope they never get that good too
  20. I just have some doubt about this one.
  21. Monkey is not a role model for his son.
