Ray Singer Posted November 26, 2023 Report Posted November 26, 2023 Not absolutely sure, but I believe this is Noshu ju Kanenobu saku and dated 1943. 2 1
Scogg Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Thank you very much @Ray Singer that helps a lot. It was a nice looking sword I wish I could have purchased thanks again! I appreciate all the help Edited November 26, 2023 by GeorgeLuucas Deleted second request to start new thread
Geraint Posted August 5, 2025 Report Posted August 5, 2025 Dear David. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but your sword is a Chinese reproduction. The damascus pattern of the blade, the shape f the habaKI and the incorrect wrapping of the hilt are all indicators If you would like some more information then have a look at this section of the forum. https://www.militaria.co.za/nmb/forum/142-fake-Japanese-swords/ All the best. 1 1
Brian Posted August 5, 2025 Report Posted August 5, 2025 Please open a new thread instead of re-opening one from 2023 Afraid yours is not Japanese as mentioned. 1
