WW2 Japanese Lightweight Shingunto Dress Sword Very Rare
These are very rare and don't come up too often. This is a shingunto dress sword also called Lightweight Guntos. This one is missing one suspension ring, a small screw on the throat of the scabbard, and the ito wrap is fraying. Other than that it is in good condition and has the creeping woodsorrel kamon on the back of the tsuka. Included is a leather fowl weather tsuka cover I bought separately for this sword.

The cover has a rip in the leather. Last picture is the light weight shingunto next to a standard sized type 98 shingunto for comparison. The type 98 is not for sale. 39.5 inches in scabbard. 38.5 inches out of scabbard.

31.5 inches blade length. 7.0 inches Tsuba+Tsuka length. 0.9 inches blade width. The item "WW2 Japanese Lightweight Shingunto Dress Sword Very Rare" is in sale since Thursday, May 6, 2021.
