Bruce Pennington Posted September 29 Report Posted September 29 Hi Jan, Sorry to say that's a well known fake. I keep a file on these. Would you mind posting a photo of the sword overall? Is it trying to be an NCO Type 95 or something else? I have several on file from this particular faker, and there is a usually a serial number at the bottom of the etching. Among other things, yours has a date (1940) on it, which is almost always the only date they put on these. 1 Quote
Jimbo1967 Posted September 29 Author Report Posted September 29 Bruce, Thanks for the heads up. We found the sword in the garbage and my grandson was obsessed with trying to find out if it was real or not. I'll have to pass on the bad news... Quote
