Pair of Suya Company Court Style Army Swords
These are the swords featured in Plates 5-3, 5-4 (left sword), 5-6, 5-8, 5-9,
and 5-10 in the Cyclopedia Edition.
They are being sold as a pair (will not separate): They are matching swords from Suya Token Shoten, Tokyo, Japan’s foremost fittings manufacturer. Suya fittings are of the highest quality. The company grade sword is missing the
wire on the grip, and the blade is dark for the most part.
The wire is complete and perfect on the field grade. Some chrome missing from the blade. Overall as a pair, condition is very good to excellent. A company grade model just sold on eBay for over $1000 by itself. Field grades are scarce. I have never seen one advertised for sale.

Actual sword pictured in Swords of Imperial Japan 1868-1945 Cyclopedia Edition on pages 266 and 267 in Plate 21-1, Plate 21-2, Plate 21-3, and Plate 21-4.
On March 18, 1889 (Meiji 22), this pattern was authorized for naval prison
guards.
Illustrations in the Naval Uniform Regulations (and reproduced on page 266 of
the book) show an anchor on the backstrap at the pommel and on the scabbard
tip.
On a scale of fair, good, very good, excellent, and mint, this example is
overall Very Good Plus.
Please look at the photos here and the ones in the book. Brass handle parts have
a nice patina and the wire is present and tight. The leather grip is excellent!
The scabbard latch is present and securely locks the sword in the scabbard.
The blade is excellent with minor discoloration only. The scabbard retains 80% plus of its original finish and has one dent near the
drag on the side opposite the anchor.
Both throat screws are present and original. This is a very presentable example!
Free shipping and insurance by Priority Mail in the US.
Price $1495.

Japanese Type 19 Field Grade
Kyu-gunto Army Sword

|

|
Actual sword pictured in Swords of Imperial Japan 1868-1945 Cyclopedia Edition on pages 70, 78, 79, and 80 in Plate 6-28 (second sword from the top), Plate
6-49 (left sword), Plate 6-52 (top sword), and Plate 6-53.
The tassels pictured with the sword in the book are NOT included in this sale. Field grades swords are scarce and even more so when both hangers, including the
lower removable one, are present.
Overall condition is excellent plus! Ninety percent or more of the gold plating on the handle is still present. The gold on the guard and knucklebow is a richer yellow than the gold on the
backstrap which has a lighter cast.
The horn grip is perfect, the handle is tight, and the wire is present and tight
and retains 100% of its gold plating. The chrome plated dress blade retains
98+% of its chrome with minor deterioration near the ricasso. The tip is
slightly blunted as I tried to show in a photograph.
The scabbard retains 99% of the original chrome with minute deterioration near
the throat and chrome loss at the tip of the drag. This is a stunning example
of a rare sword and the best I have ever found!
That is why we featured it in four separate photographs in the book.
Free shipping and insurance by Priority Mail in the US.
Price $695.
