  1. Thank you again. No worries. It is one more to most likely chop off the list. I’m going to deduce where the finest ones are. No disrespect but we are at a fine time to discover whereabouts, as descendants open their Grandfather’s closets in all corners of the lower 48, Hawaii and Alaska. My belief is that they will be in the wrong fittings. Let’s all hope that the smelter did not toss them in the furnace. many thanks, always a thrill.
  2. Per Bruce’s requests to document all this as we search for the Honjo. Here are a few more undeserving photos. Thank you all for allowing me to exhibit my abounding ignorance. Truly the one I saw on Wake Island, found in the New Matt’s area sends the most chills down my spine. Thank you,
  3. Have more photos. Figured it for Chinese, but wondered if he maybe signed with own civilian name and continued post war. Never saw the number 38 before or any number in that location. Thank you all so much. It was exhausting even searching for, but thrilling to find what might be his name. Yes the photos are not oriented correctly.
  4. Thank you again, much knowledge. i see his name on the compilations of Smith’s. Possibly from Seki? I have taken over 100 photos as each part is interesting. Wondering now on why the latch on this one? Four indents also. Corresponding photos
  5. Thank you. I was expecting the Toyokawa arsenal / anchor stamp / Tenshozan Forge. A fun, interesting surprise.
