Bruce Pennington Posted September 26 Report Posted September 26 Hi J! If you pull the bamboo peg and slide the rest of the hardware off the blade, we can see the full signature. Also, it would be nice to get a shot of the full sword in fittings, and bare blade, full length. You might have an older, family blade there that has been re-fitted for WWII. The tsuba (handguard) is civilian while the other hardware shown is military. It is common to see a mixture of civil/military parts on the civil blades refitted for the war. Quote
