So I visited Tokyo and Okinawa, and did the Battles of Okinawa tour...which ended at one of the American military bases, which has a HUGE private collection of WWII weapons from both sides...took a ton of pics...but figured I would post a couple of the captured swords...The curator really had no ideas as to the value or origination of the swords...one of them could be a nice blade...

 

Any gems that can be seen??
