tiarnol Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 I am an anthropology student who is doing a museum display case full of Japanese swords and i am needing some assistance in identifying some of them. All of these swords are from our university museum. I have been doing some research and i think i have an NCO shin-gunto (1st model maybe). I would appreciate any help i can get! Thank you so much! Also, any suggestions you might have are very welcome! ~Tiffany Part 1 of 2 Quote
Stephen Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Yes youve got them down except the Katana which is repo, the Nco is second type as the first has a copper tsuka. There many copies out there now but yours looks good. Quote
Weidas Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 just to add that the first looks like Type 19 dress sword company grade and the second is Type 19 dress sword field grade Quote
