  1. Any thoughts on this tanto? A friends father got it in 1944 during the war. I thought it might be a post war/occupation souvenir piece, but he said his father never went to Japan. My other thoughts was a cut down blade from a repurposed Waki or katana. Any thoughts?
  2. @Nobody is the tag an address?
  3. Hello! I was hoping someone could help with the translation of the Tsuba as well as on the tag?
  4. Can anyone help with the translation?
  5. Can anyone make out this Mei?
  6. Hello everyone. I have the chance to buy this katana. The seller says it was brought back by a family member from the war. Just want your thoughts in its authenticity before I buy. Sorry in advance for the bad pics. This is what the seller sent me. I believe the nakago is signed “nagayoshi”
  7. Can anyone translate these! Thanks in advance!
  8. Found this tanto at a store and I took a chance on it. Is it authentic? I don’t see a signature unfortunately
  9. Hello everyone! I have the chance to buy this sword but unfortunatly I can’t see the tang. Just want your thought based on what you see if it could be authentic or a reproduction. Thanks in advance!
  10. Hello everyone, I have the chance to buy this Wakizashi. It has some paperwork with it. I was wondering if anyone could translate it for me
  11. Hey all, a seller has this copper handle NCO for sale, but I’m not sure of its authenticity. I don’t think the saya is correct for it. But I guess that could be a battlefield pickup. What are your thoughts? Is it authentic or a fake?
  12. Okay! But I don’t think it extends to the other side!
  13. Hey everyone! I believe this is an authentic civil gunto. It’s Mumei but it’s compete. The seller seems honest. He says it has a small “fissure” on the edge of the blade and I have included pics. The questions I have are, is this a fatal flaw? Is the tassel authentic? Any thoughts would be helpful!
