Thanks for all the comments, I am slowing learning. Uploading additional picture looking for opinions if there has been damage done. Also opinions if this is worth taking this to someone to be appraised?

The are on the surface and not indentations into the blade.

Pictures of both sides of the tip. Appreciate any thoughts. Thanks!!

Additional pics once I removed from the handle.

I got these from my father in-law after he passed away and really don't have any history, other than his family recalls they came back from WWII with a relative. No experience with swords. Just trying to figure out how to figure the value so I can make a decision what to do with them. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks
