  1. Thanks Bruce Very hard to get clear pic's of the whole blade because of lighting but it does looks better in person. Yes it would look very nice with a professional polish but for the price of doing that I could buy 3 more swords lol Regards Glenn
  2. Hi John My mates Dad was in New Guinea in WW11, after the war he was in the BCOF and was transferred to Hiroshima where he befriended a Japanese family, and on his return to Australia was given two swords by the family. The family had told him that one was very old and one was not, he sold one about 50 years ago and this one was kept, I first seen this sword about 40 years ago, that's the short story. My mate has told me that there is some documentation/photos but his sister has it and I will try to obtain it as well. Regards Glenn
  3. No worries Barry, will attempt to take some more photos tomorrow. Regards Glenn
