Hi all,
im incredibly new to this however I recently picked up what I believe to be an NCO type 95? From what I can tell, I believe it’s a fake/repro but I wanted your thoughts on it. I’ve tried to dissemble the sword however the blade seems to be stubborn and I can’t get the tsuka or tsuba off. The screws however were well rusted in and it took a bit of work to get them out so I don’t think I’ll succeed unless any of you have any tips to fully dissemble a rusted blade.
im not too worried if it’s a fake/repro as I picked it up rather cheap but I wanted your thoughts.
attached is an album of the images however I’ll try and upload pictures on by one https://ibb.co/album/rFfMmb
