Wwii Japanese Imperial Naval Katana Presentation Sword Auction

 

Titled  .......WWII Japanese Imperial Naval Katana Presentation Sword

 

 

Description
Naval Japanese imperial katana, note the anchor and waves pattern engraved on both sides of the blade, so probably a presentation sword or gift for an officer, aluminum grip which imitates the wooden tsuka with silk-cord wrapping, so a late war production (42-45). The numbers 198631 can be seen on the Habaki. Overall length is 39 inches, with a 30.5 inches blade. Heavy and very tight sword, very nice patina. No saya or scabbard.
