danimal03 Posted April 11 #1 Posted April 11 Hello, I am on the fringe of a huge collection being broken up. In the collection is a WWII Japanese sword. It has a short 23-inch blade. I removed the handle and looked at the tang (no pics). The tang looks super old but either was unmarked or was shortened. It has the early/pierced open tsuba. Sword has a family mon on the handle. It can be described as an 'upside down triangle in a triangle'. I have no idea what family this is attributed to. Any help is appreciated. I apologized for the less than stellar pics. Thank you.
Mr. Bushido Posted April 12 #2 Posted April 12 There are several types of family crests similar to this one. It is difficult to distinguish between them completely. ●Mitsu-uroko【三つ鱗】 https://irohakamon.com/kamon/uroko/mitsuuroko.html ●Tanegashima-uroko【種子島鱗】 https://irohakamon.com/kamon/uroko/tanegashimauroko.html
