@davel thanks aswell... ooof thats what i think aswell.. but somehow 3 parts on my sword are available in the shop he linked ;/ xD

@Jussi Ekholm what would u say, is the value +- around my sword?

@Jussi Ekholm thanks alot for the links! it hurts to face the truth, i see xD but thanks..

i did not do the magnetic test yet.. thats my next step. thank u guys sooo much for helping me! i really appreciate it.. insane community here <3

+its not only 1.2kg as iaito are.. its more heavy, idk the excat weight of it

@charlesf u sure? it originally was sharpened extremely... cuted everything easily... then it got re sharpened to make it safe for children yk.. original it was really sharp

i aswell found this: The Nakano Shoten in Tokyo was a well-known provider of koshirae (sword fittings) and other sword accessories, especially during the time of World War II. It was owned by Mr. Nakano and also had branches in China. Unfortunately, there is no precise information available about the founding or closing dates of Nakano Shoten. Some reports mention that similar shops still exist today as tourist attractions, but without specific details about their current status. If you own a sword stamped by Nakano Shoten, it is likely a military Gunto from the World War II era, outfitted by this company. These swords were often made for officers and soldiers and are now highly sought after by collectors. For more accurate dating and authentication of your sword, it is recommended to consult an expert in Japanese swords or a specialized auction house. They can help determine the age and origin of your katana precisely. looks interesting for me

it has excatly these 2 holes 👍 lemme open the mei again then i show u haha... so i can pic the other site aswell.

aswell on the "case" it has gold as u can see.. i think thats real gold, otherwise it would vanished a bit in all that years i think? what u guys think, its worth? i have no idea where these priced at +-
