NIHONTO Japanese WW II Army Sword/Antique Samurai/Tassel/SIGNED OLD FAMILY BLADE
NIHONTO Japanese WW II Army Sword/Antique Samurai/Tassel/SIGNED OLD FAMILY BLADE
$0
1 very fine traditionally-made Japanese Samurai sword available. The blade itself is an old family blade. This sword was made between 1673 A.D. and 1736 A.D. by Fujiwara Teruyuki. This sword was remounted in fine Army Officer mounts for carry in World War 2. This sword was carried by true Samurai, and then later again during World War 2. This fine Samurai sword would make an important addition to any collection.
The military mounts are of exceptional quality. Note the premium over-sized pierced tsuba. The fittings are early–the copper fittings have a rich red color. Further evidence of this sword’s high-end mounts is evidenced by looking at the kashira–note that there was originally a Silver family mon/crest. The G.I. that brought this sword back pulled the family crest, because he knew it was made of Silver. At the time, something like this little fitting of Silver was more important to many of the G.I.’s, because no one thought of Japanese swords as collectibles back then.
This sword has an excellent blue/brown Company Grade Officer’s tassel.
The blade measures 22 5/16″ (56.7 cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine. This sword has a fine cherry blossum sarute.

1 U.S. World War 2 4″ Richtig fighting knife. This rare, small Richtig boot knife would make an important addition to any U.S. military or world militaria collection.
This knife was made by a legend in knife-making. Frank Richtig had a secret steel tempering process that allowed him to slice through railroad spikes and automobile leaf springs. Frank would demonstrate this at county fairs–after slicing a railroad spike or leaf spring, he would slice through a piece of paper with the same knife. Frank earned himself a spot in a ‘Ripley’s Believe It or Not’ magazine in the 1930’s. These knives can be used for decades, because of Frank’s superior craftsmanship.
This knife measures just 8 3/16″ overall. The blade itself measures 4 3/16″. This Richtig fighter is stamped ‘F.J.R. CLARKSON NEB.’. The guard and pommel are brass. The pommel has an extended lanyard ring.
The scabbard was with this knife throughout World War 2.
