antiquegallery Posted July 3, 2019 Report Posted July 3, 2019 Hey. I have such an interesting dirk. Can anyone have more information about this dirk? or photos from catalogs or books?You can see more photo and video in website https://antiquegallery.com.ua/product/Japanese-police-dirk/ Quote
ggil Posted July 3, 2019 Report Posted July 3, 2019 This is odd! usually you see the patrol swords which are around 18” Nagasa, and have only the sun emblem. Not seen a dirk like this before. No idea about what rank would’ve worn it or how many instances of this dirk there may exist out there. I wonder if the police had a boat crew that patrolled water ways? That would make sense that the officer would carry a dirk like the navy. Thanks for sharing. Too bad the blade looks to have an etched hamon, but still really cool. Quote
antiquegallery Posted July 3, 2019 Author Report Posted July 3, 2019 I have a Russian version of the book Richard Fuller and Ron Gregory, in the English version of this book I can not find this information. Quote

antiquegallery Posted July 3, 2019 Author Report Posted July 3, 2019 Thank you very much . I think about a multilingual site. but there will be difficulties when translating many words .. but I will try. I want to run video content with a story.
