    Looks like a nice decent shinto bizen katana to me.

    @Steve The kikusi ba seppa should be turned to. The blossoms must be outside not inside. The flatside of the seppas must look allways to the tsuba. But is see the problem here. The sword is refitted with different seppas. Thats the reason to why it didn't fit correctly.

    that way

    Joseph could we see the boshi and the blade in a normal picture?

    looks all round no yokote, no kissaki, no lines. It looks like hamon runs out. Make another picture.

    @Steve That assembling looks something wild and not correct.

    I think it is really a replica. The blade looks like a zinc alloy blade and the fittings are very low quality.

    No longer interest?

    I had the same feeling but I'm not sure about the nakago. Hope he will take some better pictures.

    @Bruce can you move that thread to the nihonto section for more audience on the blade?
  11. vajo
    Better blade pics are needed.

    Sam congratulation to this work. I will read it complete the next days and I'm sure it is an upcoming standard workbook about Type 95 Well done Sam.

    Real one.

    Nice sword! A very nice, well-preserved example of the 95 type, which is the most frequently copied.

    I don't like the blade and the habaki. The Habaki is shinny and looks like the same as on the polish replica. Maybe it is assambled together from parts and the blade is fake whatever. Or it is what it is.

    Looks fake to me.

    ChatGPT is dump like bread. People all over the world loose their jobs because people think A.I. is helpfull. It isn't It steals your income, your prosperity and future. It won't be long before people realize it. But then it will be too late. We're screwed.

    The shinogi is round and the nakago has some grinding signs. Do what ever you wanted to do, its your sword. But I'm sure it will look terrible after you start to grind it.

    Someone tried to make a kitchen knife from it. All lines are gone... Captain Dremel is on the bridge

    Take a piece of weak wood and a rubber hammer. And do it very gently. You handle with a sharp blade. Keep in mind that is dangerous.

    Real swords as Brian said. But avoid to make pictures with flash. I think that is a nice tsuba. The swords are in bad condition. Try to make better pictures without flashlight on a neutral background maybe in sunlight. I think they will look different then.
