remind me of news reelfootage used in many documentries on ww2 . American officer accepting swords from Japanese officers. they were lined up, and one by one presented thier swords to our guy. they were laid on a tarp on the field. looked to be more than 100 and counting...
i'd be happy with a handle set for my jap nco sword.. it has hand made wood scales wrapped in black tenis racket tape. i can't complain, it was given to me when i was a kid more than 30 years ago..
