I recently came across some WW2 swords that were my grandfather’s and was hoping to get some help trying to translate the inscriptions on the tangs. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

They are all worthless. PM me and I'll give you $50/each for them. Post pictures of both sides of the tang, along with the whole blade when you get a chance. Some of the WW2 swords are actually much older. Also take close pictures of any stamps/markings on the back of the blade. I can't personally translate them, but there are many friendly people here who would be happy to help you out.

Welcome. I keep hoping one of these threads will turn up the Honjo Masamune. 🤞
