1 antique Japanese samurai arrow point available. This desirable boar’s eye/pierced Japanese yanone/arrowhead would make a fine addition to any collection.
The ancient 17th-18th century Japanese yajiri/arrowpoint would have been used by true Samurai. This arrowpoint measures 4 13/16″ (12.2 cm), including the tang. The point itself measures 1 1/2″ (3.8 cm) by 1 1/16″ wide (2.7 cm).
The tang/nakago is marked with a number ‘X114’. I have seen this very style of marking before. This point was either in a museum, or was in a known collection.

1 antique 18th/19th Century Japanese sword tsuka. This fine Samurai sword handle has a rare family mon fuchi. This Samurai family mon centuries later was used unfortunately by the Nazis.
This katana/tachi tsuka measures 10 1/16″ in length. The fuchi/kashira doesn’t have to match with a fuchi like this sword handle has.
The opening in the fuchi that fits the sword blade measures 1 1/8″ long (2.9 cm) by 5/16″ wide (0.8 cm).
This Japanese Samurai sword handle, with its rare motif family mon fuchi, would make a rare addition to any collection–and would make a fine handle for an antique Japanese katana or tachi.

1 antique World War II Japanese samurai army officer’s Muratato shin-gunto sword available. A WW2 Japanese Army Officer’s katana would make an important addition to any collection.
The tang is unsigned, but does have a small stamp. This sword is a Murata-to sword.

Murata Tsuneyoshi developed the “new Japanese-European combined sword system”.
