Offered for sale is a rare WWII Japanese Naval Prison Sabre mounted in Gunto Koshirae, an unusual and highly collectible Imperial Japanese edged weapon from the World War II era.

This distinctive sword represents a scarce variation of Japanese wartime service sabres associated with naval and prison-related official use. Pieces of this type are encountered far less frequently than standard military gunto swords, making them especially desirable among collectors of Imperial Japanese militaria.

The sword features classic wartime craftsmanship, traditional fittings, and strong historical character.

Features:

WWII Japanese Naval Prison Sabre Mounted in traditional Gunto Koshirae Imperial Japanese military/government edged weapon Rare and unusual wartime pattern Officer-grade fittings and construction Historic WWII Japanese collectible

Condition: The sword shows natural age, wear, and handling marks consistent with its age and historical use. The blade presents well overall; however, the blade may not be the one these mounts were made for, and may have been replaced at some point during its lifetime.

The scabbard shows visible age-related wear and surface wear from years of storage and handling; however, the overall structure remains solid and intact.

This item is being sold exactly as found/as is. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description and condition details.
