Mate I'm even more confused trying to figure this sword out. The blade is sharp, seems very symetrical, has a very good feel to it, seems well balanced when swinging in a cutting motion if it is not a true Katana then its a very good copy. Not sure what to do from here?

Hi, I was told this translates to Colonel Yamada, is this correct. Thanks in advance Regards Peter Brennan.

Couple of blade pictures of the sword, any information would be appreciated. Supposedly Colonel Yamada sword, according to translation on handle. Regards. Peter.

Ok, I wasn't expecting that. Why don't you think it is Japanese? What do you think it is?

I have a Samuri sword with this inscription on it, I sent it to the Honorary Consul-General for Japan in South Australia Adam Wynn and he verified the translation. I would like to find out more about the origin of this sword and any significance it may have. Regards. Peter Brennan
