I was just talking with another board member recently who introduced me to japanese colonial sabers (special mounts given to officers incharge of jpn territories, two different types per area).

could this be one of them?

Hi Guys,

It is interesting with that flat end Kashira. I have never had one like it and I have had and have almost all variants.

Do You really think the kashira and drag shoe is original to the dagger?
I noticed some sort of coating on the plastic same.
To me still looks "put together" post war.

The propotions looks wrong.

I belive it to be a put together post-war

Three times in three months ? For a third of the initial price, funny.

It was sold for 330 us$.

I thinks its easy to see that its a "homemade" repair.
It dosnt have the japanese look ,details and craftmanship.
Offcourse there is different type and variants ,but not so poor.

When will it be for sale again? LOL ,when the new owner finds out what it is.
