Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:50001672 | Country/Region of Manufacture: Japan |
I purchased this sword but have no idea who is the maker, hopefully somebody out there will get lucky.
The blade has some Nick, but it's in decent condition.
Measurement - blade is 26 inches long
this information was given to me by a friend who knew someone that read Japanese. no guarantee on the information hope this helps.
I could not be sure about the mei.
Production date is April of 1944 as I think (That is Showa 20. 昭和二十年)
Name... is probably "FISH MANY" or ”FISH FRIEND":
魚 (さかな "SA-KA-NA") = Fish
達 (たち “TA-CHI” or “DA CHI”) = Friend or Many (when used as pluralizing suffix, especially for people and animals.)
