Thank you for the links. I’ll look into each of them. This sword sold within an hour of me posting it on here. 😂
-
I shouldn’t have used the word standard. I just meant I thought there were expectations. Like not putting a hole through the signature.
-
Ok finished the first link. Takeaway was “there are no hard and fast rules” Haha.
-
Weren’t a lot of them mass produced in factories? I assume there was a standard, across the board blade for a lot of them.
-
Any help on what to look for on a 98? I know the blade isn’t the standard. Could it be an older blade?
-
I thought I had a better picture of it but I guess this is the only one I took.
-
Good looking out. 👍🏻
-
Messaged you.
-
I think that’s what I’m going to have to do. For now at least. I appreciate it.
-
No, I don’t particularly want a 95. I would love a 94 or 98 but I have an even harder time deciphering if they are authentic and finding one for the price of this one. New guys just don’t know where you guys find these for fair prices. I could find 5 on EBay that I would buy for $1500 right now but I’m scared to I’ll get a fake. I’ve looked at photos and read up on the fittings etc but I don’t feel much confidence in my ability to spot a fake. I’m not sure I ever will.
-
I mean. I have plenty of stuff lying around I could trade them to bring the price down and I’d love to have it as a first piece in a WWll collection but I have little knowledge on how to fix it properly.

He said the “Nagoya stamp is fake” and thought the ferrule was “shameful”. Another said “Oh God that pawn shop got ripped off”. I’m not sure what that statement was based on since everyone here seems to think it’s authentic and we don’t know what the shop paid for it.
-
Thanks. I think I’ll come here and pick your guys brains before buying if you don’t mind. It was nice to have actual insight to the points you addressed and I feel like I actually learned something. In the meantime if anyone finds a decent 95 send them my way.
-
Thank for the info. They were asking $895 which although I am very green seemed a little high for the blade situation. Could probably talk them down but I am uncertain on its actual value.
-
It’s like it was chromed and is peeling in that spot.
-
It’s both. Mostly antiques but you can pawn firearms, guitars, jewelry etc. as well. The Japanese military group on Facebook seems to be mixed with one guy insisting it was a copy, another said legit and no one quite knew what was going on with the blade peeling. Whether it was chromed or if that’s cosmoline?
-
What is this? Chromed?

Need help identifying this.
