SNORMAN Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Hello, I recently got this sword in on a gun trade not too long ago. He didn't have a lot of information on it, but claims it was a 1925-1935 showa era piece. Any information on it would be greatly appriciated! Quote

Shugyosha Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Hi Snorman, Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that is a Chinese fake. I hope you can get your money back from the seller. There's an article on fake swords here: http://jssus.org/nkp/fake_japanese_swords.html Best, John 3 Quote
TETSUGENDO Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Sorry to confirm Johns findings, it is unfortunately a modern Chinese fake. Read the link he provided and take caution in the future, before acquiring another sword I suggest you spend some time on NMB studying the posts, they are quite educational. -S- 2 Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 I would consider trading a punch to the gut to the seller for this one. 3 Quote
