  1. Thank you to everyone who has given me insight! It is very much appreciated. Any other opinions on the short sword? Ganko says it’s signed “ Bishu Osafune Yoshitsugu” possibly early 1400’s. Can anyone else verify. Should I insure the thing? If so how much. I have no idea in these things. It’s just sitting in the basement collecting dust. :/ Chris M
  2. t Thanks for the repost! Did I miss a question or request? Chris M
  3. Steve- Awesome! So I’m looking at Kōa-isshin mantetsu saku from the spring of 1943? Any idea on the spine marks? Chris M
  4. There are no markings under the brass collar other than the “spine” markings in the previously posted pic Here is a better shot. Thank you for any help you can give me! Chris M
  5. Here is another sword? Dagger? Knife? Can you give me background/date. Translate signature? Any help would be greatly appreciated! The family was so excited about the other info CM
  6. Here is the image of the markings on the spine. Can anyone tell me what these are? CM
  7. Thank you!!! There are other markings on the spine. I can post photos later tonight. Also have another short sword that I didn’t think much of til I thought to remove the handle. It’s signed as well. I’ll throw those pics up too. Thank you so much for your help!!
  8. I’ve been working on my late grandfather’s estate and we came across this sword. We’d like to find out more about it. So far everyone I’ve reached out to wants to buy it or charge me large appraisal fee. This is something we’d like to hold on to but knowing what we have would be great. I think it’s WW2 era but that’s about all I can figure out. It is marked but I am failing at trying to translate. Is this something you could help us with? Should we insure it? Any info would be greatly appreciated!!
