It was a sword bestowed by Emperor Showa upon outstanding graduates of the Japanese Army University. From 1933 until the end of the war in 1945, there were only about 80 swords in total Quote
Rawa Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 Yes and If you looked on post above your answer you would know that I distinguish both. I need to watch "lost in translation" oh and yeah he is mention as yasutoku at http://www.jp-sword.com/files/yasukuni/yasukunito.html Quote
japanesewarriors Posted July 1 Report Posted July 1 Hello all, I was wondering if I could have your opinions on this blade as kind off relevant here, with the YASAKUNI knowledge you have. Believe YASNORI 1938/39 December, with papers. Sorry picture not better but in a rush. Thanks for any help and opinions. Quote
Karu Posted July 2 Report Posted July 2 Showa 13, 12th month. december 1938 It looks very good to me. Maybe you can share better photos of the blade ? Quote
saemonjonosuke Posted July 2 Author Report Posted July 2 Thanks. Looks like a 'typical' Yasunori. Nice. New or later polish. Quote
saemonjonosuke Posted July 2 Author Report Posted July 2 Here is another copy signed Takenori, dated January 1945. The old (war) polishing is still visible on the papers. Sold at Aoi Art. 1 Quote
