- Lot Description
Featured in this lot is this Japanese Showa Era Rikugun Jyumei Tosho katana circa 1926 to 1989. The katana features a wonderfully and professionally crafted steel construction with a full tang and a wooden sheath or saya. The blade shows shows prominent taka no ha (file markings) from a titled Rikugun Jyumei Tosho during the early part of the Showa Era. During the Taisho and early Showa periods, the Japanese military gave the title of Rikugun Jyumei Tosho to skilled swordsmiths. To receive this title, a swordsmith would forge two swords and submit them to a weapons-producing governmental agency. The Showa era is one of the longest and most transformative periods in Japanese history, encompassing both the nation's darkest and most prosperous times. The Showa era is a significant period in Japanese history that spanned from December 25, 1926, to January 7, 1989, corresponding to the reign of Emperor Hirohito, also known as Emperor Showa. This era was marked by profound changes in Japan, including military expansion, World War II, post-war reconstruction, and rapid modernization. The condition of this Japanese katana is well preserved with a small chip in the blade and the saya shows some chips to the paint of it and oxidation to the outside rings of the sheath; the blade doesn't show a hilt or Tsuba but shows an exposed tang but otherwise shows a well preserved condition. The measurements of this katana is 36 7/8" x 3" x 1 1/2" and the blade length is 26 3/4". The collective weight of this katana is 2lb 8oz.
