I would like to find a ww2 era NCO or officer sword for my display. I do weapon/equipment displays at reenactments, and the Pacific theater is usually not represented very well at the ones I normally attend. Nothing fancy, as my buddy and I do hands-on demonstrations with the public. A lot of folk hear about some of these weapons, maybe have seen one or two, but have never held one. The kids get a kick out of it, as a lot of them know them from games.

I asked about the swords being hollow, as when I was in Okinawa, you could have the hollow swords, but not a solid one. If you were to sharpen a hollow one, it falls apart (supposedly).
