Benji Posted January 6 Report Posted January 6 I picked up this shin gunto in late war mounts that unfortunately was cleaned at some point. If someone could translate it I would appreciate it. Thank you 2 Quote

I should have some free time tomorrow so I will take some decent pictures (as decent as I can indoors as it is probably going to be snowing) and post them. Unfortunately it was very aggressively cleaned so to say it is out of polish would be a understatement. It looks like he used a buffing wheel and fine abrasive. I wouldn't say destroyed but definitely sad. The man I bought it from said his father brought it back from occupation in Tokyo. 1 Quote
