Original WWII Japanese Shin-Gunto Katana Sword with 19th Century Handmade Blade by UNJU KOREZAKU Bira Gun - Original 106th Infantry DivisionOriginal Item: One of a Kind. Recently purchased at a large military show, this is a great USGI Bring Back Japanese officer Katana in a Shin Gunto military setting, with a leather covered wooden scabbard. A Shin Gunt (, new military sword) is a weapon and symbol of rank used by the Imperial Japanese Army between the years of 1935 and 1945. Most of these had WWII production blades fitted to them, but the blade on this example definitely pre dates WWII,
