  1. Please find as attachment pictures of Japanese dirk with metal saya. In my opinion this is no marine dirk because of metal saya,if not,what kind of variation is it? Thx.Regards

  4. Hi Brian, I doubt that is a total fake,I have personally examined the dagger and the fact that it is made ​​of quality steel and copper tsuka and saya. Maybe is really Meiji product for tourists as well as other blades that were mounted ​​in carved bone?! Thx
  5. I hope I have not violated the forum rules because I did not know where to set the theme with this dagger. I've seen similar daggers so I wonder if anyone has additional information? Double etched straight blade,habaki and brass handle.Scabbard made of wood covered with brass bas-relief of a bird and figure,total lenght aprox. 33 cm. Thx.Regards

  9. Hi Mark,thanks for information.I checked but it's not what I'm looking for.eBay item looks like Gunto Kanenori or Kanbun(in my humble opinion)?! Comment on blade and signature I leave to the experts, although I have some doubts. Thanks once again.
