NCO Sword Tsuka

[Bobby]

Hello. Does the Tsuka of this NCO sword look correct and original? Thank you for any feedback.

Bobby,
It's tough to say for sure with the low-res photos. My gut says, not good. Could use better photos of the stamps and the handle diamonds. That nut on the retention screw looks suspect too.

Thanks Bruce! I had my suspicions too, based on the pictures that were posted. I was not able to see the katana in person or get better pictures. With that being the case, I decided to pass on buying it.
