    Dave The photo That I post awhile ago and the other photos you post are 造兵刀 Zohei-to, a lot of people confused them as 村田刀 Murata to. It has arsenal made blade with blood grove but no Ser# on the blade, use type 98 mount. The OP sword is modified(look like wartime work） NCO blade cut the partial tang to fit into type 98 handle,like many remount Koto. Here is the link about 造兵刀 http://ohmura-study.net/206.html

    Steve True!Bill's Copper handle 95 also has re-stamped Ser# on the blade near Habaki.

    Grey You're right, this sword Jason post is a fake. But, never say never about WW2 Gunto, in fact,I have an NCR Gunto made by 兼義 Kaneyoshi with numbered Habaki.

    It will look a lot better for sure with handle re-wrapped .

    Showa smith 伊奈波 兼吉Inaba Kaneyoshi ，Stainless steel blade.
  11. BANGBANGSAN
    Fixe the handle would cost $200-300, the broken tip hurt the value a quit bit.

    諸事means Everything/All matters, 満足 means Satisfy。 But I think 諸事満足 in here should be close to 萬事如意(May everything go your way/All the best).

    +1,I would like to know that as well, my two: セ 1066 &セ 2575.

    Tom Not many of Mantetsu in this mount, nice!
  22. BANGBANGSAN
    Do not remove the screw, it's very easy to break. Nothing under the handle needs to see. You can clean the blade, it is machine-made.
  23. BANGBANGSAN
    John You had many colonel's tassels, and general 's tassel, it's more expensive than a lot Gunto!
  24. BANGBANGSAN
    Denis Same as Bruce, I like the sword with tassel, I'll buy the tassel if it has not come with one already. There are a lot of tassels for Type 98 for sale, the hard part is if you have many NCO swords and want all of them to have the leather tassel on.
  25. BANGBANGSAN
    Steve I'm not sure if these remount 95 are all post-war put together either. But there is plenty of post-war remount 98, even nowadays in US, Japan&China. Why not the dealer reuse 95 fittings and sell it to the customer like 95 mounts? Especially most of the blade of 95 got destroyed in Japan, it's a waste of resources, right?
