    Thomas I got more photos of that sword, It has 江 Mark indeed. It's in the Kai gunto mount.

    I asked him again if he can find more photos or details, he found one more photo （not full tang,I'm sorry)with 南 mark, and partial Mei shows it's not KOA he said it's 滿鐵鍛造之。

    Thomas Unfortunately, I do not have other photos,I would already post them if I have more. But for the 2 photos I have,lt looks like eBay seller ericowazamono's old sell，he might still have photos of that sword in his data.Our member @Ontario_Archaeology just bought a 1938 Mantetsu N356 from him not long ago.

    Bruce As I said, these are all the photos I've been provided. I asked already, no other photos, not my friend's swords, he just found photos for me from some old file he saved a long time ago.

    @Kiipu Thomas Do you think the mark on the blade is the same mark as the 大 Mark？It says on Fullers Page 226, Dai(or Tai) stamp. Significance unknown.Has only been found on blades dated 1945. Very rare.

    Bruce I watched that show, the handle of Baba Voss's word seems very long

    Those 2 wood saya RS, one is my friend's, one is from the internet. Both are not likely Gendai but arsenal blade. The one I use to have is in the metal saya cheaper version, not Gendai blade, but I forgot if there is any arsenal mark or numbers on the tang, it was a long time ago.
  10. BANGBANGSAN
    My friend had a better fitting RS with a mumei blade, it seems arsenal made with the number. There is another one just like he's, and has a very close number.

    兼湞作？
  14. BANGBANGSAN
    I used to have one of these Mumei RS when I started collecting Gunto years ago, but I didn't take any photos of the tang.

    Is that Kai a Waki?
  16. BANGBANGSAN
    This Kanji should be 國泰 instead of 國奏
  17. BANGBANGSAN
    Not the same like yours but kind of close...
  18. BANGBANGSAN
    It reminds me of these filed-made casts handle ones...

    @Bruce Pennington Thanks Bruce,any photo of Tōkyō 1st Army Arsenal 東 final inspection mark on the kabuto-gane? I think this was @charlie1's Mantetsu

    Steve Do you know what is the Ser# range of Mizuno?
  23. BANGBANGSAN
    Don't feel bad, they are right next to each other on that chart, easy to mix up.
  24. BANGBANGSAN
    I thought it was the Mizuno 水野 got canceled contract due to the poor workmanship.
  25. BANGBANGSAN
