I watched the two swords, but the pictures are very bad. Do you think that any worthwhile purchase. Do you think that is handmade sword??

Thanks for helping me

In my opinion, they sold for a very high price. These form of sword always have machine made blades. Sorry to respond after the auction ended.

I have one in my modest collection but that is all I ever wanted , just one.
I am like Bob I have a prejudice towards machine made blades.
I wouldn't worry about missing the auction you would have had to pay to much for the pair. Probably a lot more than the auction ended at.

These are all pre-World War II Japanese swords. They are good as representative Japanese blades for the pre-1936 Japanese military, but if you want WWII Japanese this is not for you. These usually run around $300 US dollars. Always look to see if the serial number on the sword matches the scabbard...
