Ha Ha, ok, my sword is ugly. Maybe some day I will hold a real sword. This thing still feels pretty legit to me though. It seems to fit nicely into the scabbard. How do you know it isn't a late war model? Didn't the standards fall late in the war? Maybe this is just the budget version for a low ranking army officer....? That dragon is pretty legit. right? anyone?? forget it, I am going to go cut up some coconuts.

That makes sense. Thanks for the input. I guess I'll see how well it opens coconuts now without worrying about destroying a war relic. What gives away that it is a copy? So you think it is Indonesian made? Or Chinese maybe? They had other swords with the blades rusted almost all the way through, some advertised as native and others they said were Japanese.

So I was looking for some T-shirts at a tourist shop in Indonesian Borneo and this katana caught my eye. I don't know anything about swords and have never owned one before, but it seemed sad to leave it hanging on the wall to rust. What kind of blade is this?
