1 antique World War II Japanese Samurai Army Officer’s shin-gunto sword available.  A WW2 Japanese Army Officer’s katana would make an important addition to any collection.

The nakago/tang is signed–I read the signature as ‘Yoshiharu‘.  There is an arsenal stamp on the tang.  The reverse side of the nakago has painted on assembly numbers. 

All military fittings are of excellent quality.  The seppa, tsuba, etc. all have matching assembly numbers–the number ‘5’.  The tsuka has a fine cherry blossom sarute/tassel loop.  The blade measures 25 13/16″ (65.6 cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine.  This fine sword has an early metal spatter-lacquered saya/scabbard.  

The hamon/temper line is quite attractive–two peaks, then flat, two peaks, then flat, etc.
