Hello all, I'm still fairly new to collecting and I was wondering if I could get your opinions on this sword, specifically if it is real or fake. I guessed it was real but there is no mekugi to pull to view the nakago. what do you all think? Thanks in advance....

Thank you @Ray Singer. So Edo Period? Was he a quality swordsmith? It this something worth investing in/having restored? -
Hello all, a local seller has this sword for sale. He says it is from ww2. He has another sword as well and it is definitely from ww2. But this one seems....off. my biggest concern is the Mei. It is not chiseled into the tang like other signatures and seems to be on above or on top of the tang, which makes me concerned about its authenticity. Any thoughts and opinions would be appreciated!

Hello All, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this sword I have a chance to purchase. I do believe it is a genuine type 95 NCO sword, but I am no expert and its probably best to let more trained eyes look at it. It has a lot of the original paint and seems to be in good condition. My question is, how much does not having matching serial numbers affect the value?

Hello all, I just wanted your thoughts on this Type 95 I have the chance to purchase. Based on mu research I do believe it is genuine but its always best to have more trained eyes look at it as well. I still has a lot of the original paint on it, but it has mismatched serial numbers. How much does this affect the value? Thanks for all the help!
