This is a Japanese sword that I inherited from my grandpa which he acquired while serving in World War II in the battle of the pacific. I have no idea who the maker of this sword could be. It seems to be very old and is not a standard issue Japanese military blade. I would say condition wise, it’s pretty average. It’s definitely worn but for its age but it still seems to be in pretty decent shape. The blade itself is made of steel. The handle seems to be a combination of wood and leather. I have a family friend who is into martial arts and Japanese cultural stuff and he said he believes this sword could be worth something. I would like to get a keener set of eyes on it to give me a more accurate idea of how much it’s worth. Thanks

Sword blade is 26 and 3/4 inches long and 1 inch wide Handle is about 8 1/4 inches long Whole sword is about 34 1/2 inches long Sword cover is 27 1/4 inches by 1 1/2 inches
