  1. I came across this Type 95 on Facebook. Interestingly, the serial number is situated on the opposite side. This is the first one of its kind that I have ever seen.
  2. Could it be 重富 Shigetomi?
  3. Thanks, Conway!
  4. Could you post a photo of the tag?
  5. Maybe you should read this info about Mantestu sword http://ohmura-study.net/998.html In my previous response on the other thread, this sword is a presentation sword given to their employee. Apart from the signature (mei) containing that information, it is a standard-made Mantetsu sword. They made around 35000(maybe a little more) Mantetsu swords during 7 years, we are uncertain about the exact number of these swords that were gifted; I speculate not too many, perhaps a couple hundred or so? However, yours is the only one that has surfaced by far.
  6. レ五二四 =Re 524
  7. Nicholas Thanks for posting the ser#.I saw this sword posted on a Facebook group not long ago. I was interested in purchasing it, but the guy mentioned to me the seller who prefers dealing with buyers in person.

  11. @Bruce Pennington That 特 (Special)mark is one of the Extraordinary stamps.
  12. John Found another work by 伊奈波 兼波之作, this one without cutting off the mei. Comparing it to the one I posted earlier with a partially cut-off mei, the signature does not appear to be carved by the same individual.
  13. here is Army 陸軍捻(諸捻卷)vs Navy Tachi style (平卷)
  14. Correction: it should be vertical 一一八 instead of 天
  15. It says“陸軍捻“=the army (style) wrapping
