Aw bummer Well folks I really appreciate the info. Sadly, I gave a dude a hundred clams for it at a garage sale a few weeks ago. Oh well, live and learn I guess. On another note. Very nice message board! I'll need to school myself up a bit before investing in my first "real" sword, and this looks like the place to do it. Does anybody have any recomendations for a novice's first buy? Thanks again Stephen

Hello folks I have a WWII Katana that I know very little about. It is signed and has what looks to be a family crest on the tang. I've included some pictures with this message. Any insight you can offer about this sword would be swell. I love historical items, and hate not knowing anything about them lol. Thanks Stephen
