Firstly I would like to apologize for taking so long to get back I had shoulder replacement no fun especially at 71! was asked by uwe what exactly I would like to know? thanks guys for Getting the correct smith’s name I’m concerned concerned that the saya was restored and painted The blade looks almost too nice to be original polish? All it all is it worthy to spend a good chunk of money for repaint and possibly other Being star stamped is a plus
-
I probably should started another thread but based one new information I am looking to sell my NCO sword if anyone is interested steve
-
If you get any more mint Nco preferably with not I would be interested in buying steve

kai You mean wrapping and menugi

Bruce you mentioned you mentioned it was Re-wrapped and army menugi Dose any one know if it effects value??

You said plus or minus 2400 it’s still oil quench? What puzzles me is that the hamon looks more traditional then oil quench unless they can look that good But I’m no expert ethier here’s the best picture I hav It looks almost like a seki which of course is a Arsenal stamped I don’t hav the sword in my hands or I would hav a better picture
-
Thanks guys for your help I You mentioned these wow for the blade ? I would hav thought the scabbard was shark skin how can you tell post war souvenir ?

Thanks Bruce Was it rewrapped post and Added a Menuki lose and the swords value? 1700 probably a little pricey especially if it was messed with

I appreciate all help addressing information regarding this sword

I’m not familiar with this expression can you elaborate

Sorry I can’t find any new marks Do you know would go to sell and what price range I’m assuming it’s a smaller group of people that would be interested because of its uniqueness

Very hard to see inside the throat I took the best I could maybe I can see something The blade is easy also back of fuchi nothing does that mean not as rare anymore?
-
Ok I took pictures of the fuchi and the scabbard throat I cant tell if it is a marking or not Not as clear as yours Maybe you can see something I can’t
-
Thanks for your help Sorry I didn’t get back sooner been busy but it great news to know To hav a nice rare sword I will get some pictures of the scabbard throat hopefully with extra stamped

Thanks for clearing that up regarding the serial # Kiipu No the scabbard wasn’t repainted it’s original but the tassels a reproduction
