This is an original WWII NCO sword. Markings indicate manufacturer is Suya Shoteh Co. Ltd. with a Tokyo or later Kokura Arsenal marking. Probably from the earlier Tokyo arsenal due to the manufacturer & lower number. The sword is in relatively good condition without rust or any major scratches on the blade. The scabbard has 2 dents and is missing the collar ( replaceable) at the top of the scabbard and priced accordingly. This is 100% original. I will ship priority mail INSURED.
