  1. Posting entire page. Maybe mistake in book?
  2. Yes and If you looked on post above your answer you would know that I distinguish both. I need to watch "lost in translation" oh and yeah he is mention as yasutoku at http://www.jp-sword.com/files/yasukuni/yasukunito.html
  3. Sword made by Yasunori [May 1934] there are some diferences becouse yours was made by nephew [name "Yasunori" Kenzo recieved in 1935] of main smith also Yasunori [Kajiyama]
  4. Oh and it is Yasunori. I wonder if he was doing mei same way as Yasuoki. Photo from recent catch. [Smells funny]
  5. @Nightwish how long ago you bought it? Prices went crazy comparing yours. 1,3 mil for akihide is crazy. Even with tokuho
  6. Tsuba looks like casted together with smaller tsuba with rays. Menuki bad made. Looks more like barn project made by amateur or cheap wallhanger.
  7. Another postwar gi's souvenir?
  8. Weren't those entirely in Japanese?
  9. Tsukamaki looks like made after alcohol
  10. https://www.catawiki.com/pl/l/96297816-katana-miecza-oficerska-marynarki-wojennej-cesarskiej-japonii-kai-gunto-znana-rowniez-jako-kaigunto-z-ii-japonia-edo-period-1600-1868
  11. But this one have 2 om same side of nakago.
  12. Not really. I would tell that small one just above mekugi ana is first proper inspection mark. Bigger one was added later maybe becouse blade was reissued? So it passed another quality control? Here you have added mumei steinless steel with only one stamp.
  13. Men, looking at amount of these tassels IJA had more generals than privates.
  14. Its all about tassel. You can add it to basically any gunto.
  15. https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/208615160_wwii-ijn-Japanese-naval-officer-s-samurai-sword-kai-gunto Is this even genuine? It looks more like t98[gunzoku] then navy, but it have 2 toyokawa arsenal stamps on blade. Is this elusive blade of landing forces? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Naval_Landing_Forces
  16. https://ebay.us/m/cQ48wT Mr@Bruce Pennington it is similar to one posted and removed 2 days ago. After months I finally noticed this thread. I will dump here more interesting pieces.

  17. There is plug closer to fuchi but imho koshirae looks great.
  18. I have screenshot describing probably this samurai on horseback motive.
  19. @Jussi Ekholmwhich one you would pick knowing both are in same price?
  20. Lets say it was same price range. But his have both kozuka and kogai. Look at boshi, hada. Definietly he bought better one, more active-alive. New one looks like typical milky way. Dunno if it wasnt even retemper. Both have suguha hamon - how foggy is newer with these kitae in kissaki. Also compare work of togishi basing on amount of nagashi [lines]
  21. Maybe there is seki stamp under habaki but mei is only on one side.
  22. Oh I had this one already saved
  23. Google chrome worked for him. Good hint for future problems.
