notice the difference in apper. in these two war time swords

a lot of the better showa-to acquired false signatures, also the stamps were removed from maney better showa-to, and now have a verry diferent history than they should, I think the shape of a sword can tell part of the story, the truly massproduced swords seem to all have a standerd shape so the fitting could be made to the same standard, or.......... not
-
the showa stamp shows non tradational, that just means "modern" steel not tamahagane was used in the mfg., the stamps were put into efect because some of the swords made with modern steel could not be told from "tradational" swords made from tamahagane.................................. this is from the book modern Japanese swords and swordsmiths
