1 fine Japanese World War II Army Officer's sword available. This Japanese Army gendai sword would make an important addition to any collection.
This sword was made by the smith Morita Kaneshige. Kaneshige won the highest award in a national blade Kyoshinkai (competitive competition) in 1939.
The saya is very desirable--it is a rare Army saya with same/rayskin.
The blade measures 25 5/8" (65.1 cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine. This sword has a beautiful wavy temper line/hamon. This sword has a fine clasped hands sarute.
All fittings have the matching assembly number '0307'.
The blade has no nicks, and occasional surface staining. If choosing to have this sword polished, the polish would be easy--since there are no nicks, and there is no pitting. (St. Croix Blades can arrange for polish if the buyer desires). The mounts/koshirae are beautiful, and are in exceptional condition.
The hamon is perfectly heathly. The boshi is perfect as well.
St. Croix Blades buys Japanese swords.
