1 antique traditionally-made World War II Japanese Samurai Naval Officer's gendai sword available.  A WW2 Japanese Naval Officer's sword would make an important addition to any collection.

All military fittings are of excellent quality.  The saya has the collector-coveted sharkskin covering.  The blade measures 26 3/16" (66.3 cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine.  The nakago/tang is signed Masayasu.  The back side of the nakago is not dated.  

This WW2 Navy Officer's sword has gold-gilt fittings.  This sword has a fine water-tempered hamon/temper line.

The handle wrap is excellent.  The sword locks in the saya, and the lock release buttons function perfectly.  The sharkskin saya is excellent.  There are a couple areas of mild oxidation mostly along the cutting edge.  But the blade is exceptional without a polish.  

The temper line and boshi are perfectly healthy.  This sword is guaranteed against fatal flaws.
