I have a couple of pictures of a JapaneseSword that my brother owns from WWII. We have removed the grip and have photographed what appears to be hand-etched (no machine stamped) symbols in the tang. We are thinking that this sword may have someone’s family blade in it not a standard military issued standard blade. Does anyone in this forum have knowledge of Japanese charterers that might be able to offer some opinions or possibly point us to a forum that might be better suited to provide feedback?
I'm attaching a link to some photos, thanks for any advice.
