Have a WW2 samurai sword to sell?  Or a whole collection?


WE BUY JAPANESE SWORDS.

1 super rare scabbard for a World War II Japanese copper handle NCO sword available.  This rare scabbard would make an important addition to any collection, and would complete a copper handle NCO sword that is missing its scabbard.

The scabbard for the early copper handle NCO sword had a brass plug instead of a drag fitting.  See the reference photos 5 & 6 above from Jim Dawson's excellent reference book, Swords of Imperial Japan 1868-1945 Cyclopedia Edition.

The throat fitting is missing from this scabbard, but is the same throat fitting as the later NCO sword scabbards--which are way more commonplace.  So a throat fitting can be pulled from an old or rough condition later NCO sword scabbard and put on this early scabbard.  There is some expected corrosion on the scabbard--a little more towards the brass plug end.  The scabbard was perhaps stored leaning up against a wall in a more damp area like a basement.  This scabbard is so very hard to find. 


This scabbard represents a rare opportunity to complete a copper handle NCO sword that came back from the War with no scabbard.
