Here is the photo of one of my late war 95. I have two of these late war wood handle blades,both with no ser# on,but the 関 insepection mark.Both had 3 digit ser# on the scabbard throat . I noticed the Numbers stamp on the opposite side. Including 2 of mine, I saw total 3 blade with no ser# on.But the other one also has no ser# on the scabbard throat .

The navy sword has no hand guard& add the shoulder strap ,very interesting. -
That's the only 2 photos I saw/have,and I didn't know the owner.I think it's more like standard 98 but has MNR logo.

Military Tsuba with strange hole?
BANGBANGSAN replied to Yukihiro's topic in Military Swords of Japan
The Gunto present to Capt Sideny Hardvick from Chinese Ministry Of Defence was made for Nanking puppet government Wang Jing Wei's Armed Force.Like the Gunto this officer hold. 應 also could be 應需-On demand。應需 can be seen on some high ranking officer's Gunto tang. Here is Gunto from 畑俊六 Shunroku Hata,栗林忠道 Tadamichi Kuribayashi,山下奉文Tomoyuki Yamashita -
Very nice Kai Gunto!
