Larry L Posted August 16, 2023 Report Posted August 16, 2023 Hello again, In my previous post I mentioned I've been offered a Japanese collection that included a few swords. My area was always german blades so very uniformed of what to look for in fakes, parts pieces, fantasy pieces etc. Here are a two more of the swords. The first one I think might be a fake due to the large arsenal marks and post war hanger....the second one I really have no idea what it is! Thanks again for the help and advice Larry L Quote
Larry L Posted August 16, 2023 Author Report Posted August 16, 2023 few more.....Question...Is this the proper spot to post these or should I be asking in the fake type 95 section...sorry..Im new to the forum Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted August 16, 2023 Report Posted August 16, 2023 Hi Larry, welcome! This is a good place to post your question. Better photos would help with both, but I can already say that the first one is a fake. Or reproduction. We need better photos of the other sword, especially with the handle off showing the tang. 1 Quote
Brian Posted August 16, 2023 Report Posted August 16, 2023 Second is a genuine antique wakizashi. Quote
vajo Posted August 16, 2023 Report Posted August 16, 2023 Real or fake who can judge with that kind of pictures? The "vordic track pro classic skier training" is genuine and sharp visible on that picture. The tassel is 100% fake i bet. 1 Quote
