timborama2001 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 I have a great antique sword. I believe it to be authentic Japanese possibly WWI. But I have no idea about it. It is signed on the Tang & the Tsuba. I will list pics of both and the sword please help me if you have even an idea of the age and what the markings are. Thanks in advance!! Quote
loiner1965 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the forging pattern on the blade looks to me like a chinese copy.....the fittings are deffinately copies....sorry Quote
SwordGuyJoe Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 Sorry to agree, but this does not look to be an authentic Japanese blade or fittings. A closer photo of the blade should confirm. Quote
