The 26 5/16 inch (cutting edge) very sharp blade is in very good condition. The grip / tsuka is very good and retains much original finish. Everything is nice and firm. The saya / scabbard has a few dings / dents, very likely from combat use. Scabbard retains some original camouflage paint. The retaining grub (screw) for the scabbard throat / mouth piece is missing but the piece seems secure enough. The sword sheathes and draws well. The retaining spring clip works but does not click into the saya retention hole.

A good example with the rarer solid round iron tsuba / guard. Well worth was £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference number AF65. Further / full sized pictures available upon request. Box 1168-101x18x17 (2.351).
