    I agree, it’s a repro.

    Thanks Mike. We have to drag you out there at least once!

    Here’s a picture of my set up at the SOS. It’s always a great show to see new things and catch up with friends. I look forward to this event every year not just for swords but for military collectibles of every genre. It’s amazing the “stuff” you see there! Tom

    The saya is a mismatch. Tom

    I have 4077 with fingerloop although it has a leather repair. Attached are photos. Tom

    It’s totally legit and as already mentioned a rare side latch. Nice score!

    Thanks Ray, but unfortunately it’s the exact sword I am talking about. Hopefully another one will come along. Tom

    Hi all, as it says in the title I’m looking for a sword by Kanefusa with the kikusui carved on the blade. I had an opportunity to buy one years ago and didn’t. You never forget the ones you let get away! Thanks for any help, Tom

    If the price is right I would scoop this one up immediately! Tom

    Fantastic information Trystan. Thank you very much! Tom

    Trystan, thank you very much for this information. I had no idea that there were two classes. So is the otsu class a machine made blade? Tom

    Yes Bruce, it has the standard navy dirk koshirae. Any views as to legitimacy? Thanks, Tom

    I posted pictures in the translation section and was hoping someone could help me if this is a legitimate Mikasa dirk. The Mei is unlike anything I’ve seen before. Thanks for any information. Tom

    Exactly, the tangs you posted are the ones that I see online. I don’t see anything like the one I posted. Tom
