Hello everyone ~ In my quest to know more about real Japanese swords i have landed on this site and i must say after reading and brousing around for 8-10 hours it seems ive opened up a rabbit hole and cant wait to get my first Real Nihonto. Ive had a couple replica's swords and now i need to step up to the next level starting with something from WWII era . I know nothing about real swords but have always had a love for the art and hopefully with some help i can start learning and collecting some nice pieces . I must say its nice to find a web site like this where information is real and not fake like facebook and other places . First thing i need to do is find a nice blade for my son the sushi chef for his 21st birthday then i can get to collecting Russ

This blade is calling my name for some reason . Has anyone ever seen it ? What does the writing mean ? Advertised as WWII Army pilot , Kanekura , Old Family ? This might just be my very first real Japanese sword . Sold by Showa22 on ebay .
