I thought It may have been a stamp, after getting more pictures though, ot doesn't appear so.

I am trying to get some information for a friend's wife who is wanting to sell her sword sue inherited from her grandfather. I posted it to another group and was told it is signed Kanenobu and showa 18. Would this be the Father or the son? The person who sent me the pics, knows little about handling them or getting good pictures. I am trying to get more pictures of the full sword from the lady. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you, Steve. Really appreciate the help.

Good call, Mr. Singer. Thank you so much for the info

I have an opportunity two buy 2 swords at a show, the seller isn't willing to take the Tsukas off of then but took some not so good pictures of them. I honestly feel like these can't be translated due to the quality but thought it was worth the shot. Amy help is appreciated.

Thank you, everyone for the help. Its very much, appreciated :)

I am posting this for a friend. Sorry there are multiple pictures. He is trying to assertain more info on this sword.

Thank you, everyone. I do appreciate it and decided to make the purchase. It is a little bit loose from missing a seppa but that seems totally okay for what it is.

I have the opportunity to buy what I believe is an authentic type 95 sword. Serial number is low 2000's. I took really bad pictures and didn't realize it until after leaving. I don't have my Dawson's sword book with me as I am on vacation and didn't expect to potentially buy a sword. Any help is greatly appreciated. The sword and Saya are matching numbers and the Saya does have the correct drag though, I had forgot to picture it. The blade isn't in super good condition though i didnt picture it, either. will be stopping by the place again when driving back home.

I couldn't figure out what else would cause it.

It appears to be so

I have the opportunity to buy this sword. The seller says it says an old blade. The blade is in really rough shape. The mounts appear to be old. The Nakago holes don't seem to be very well done and that's my biggest issue with it.

Thank you very much. I greatly appreciate the information.
