I was going through some older photos and came across a few I wanted to post for discussion. I have had this sword for several years and it is one of my favorites
I have always wondered about the significance of the copper used on the fittings of this Gunto was this simply a private purchase option, or did copper symbolize something special to the Japanese. Even the paint is a beautiful copper color.
All comments welcome. Thanks, Geoff. Happy Easter Everyone!
