Early 1883 Pattern Japanese Suya Sword Shop Arsenal Tokyo Naval Officer's Dirk With ‘Harp’ Marked Cross Guard & Scabbard. Sn 20201 - 20201
This is an early, original 1883 Pattern Japanese Naval Officer's Dirk & Scabbard. These dirks were worn by all commissioned Officers. Towards the end of WW2 they had simulated sharkskin grips made from plastic or composite material and celluloid cross guards. Early examples had Shark skin covered grips and ornate finished fittings (see pages 70-73 of Military Swords Of Japan By Fuller & Gregory). This dirk has the correct early shark skin covered wire bound grip with brass mounts & recurving cross guard. The pommel cap and both sides of the hilt have Imperial chrysanthemum ‘Mon’ devices. The cross guard has a crisp arsenal mark of the Suya Sword Shop Arsenal Tokyo which resembles a ‘harp’ (see page 185 of Dawson’s Swords Of Imperial Japan’). It has a clean 8 ¾” single edged blade with fullers. It measures 13 ¼” overall and the hilt is slotted for retaining lug which is mounted on its scabbard. The polished Ray skin bound wood scabbard has brass mounts embossed with prunus blossoms. Each side throat mount has brass hanging rings. The upper mount of the scabbard has the correct press button retaining lug. The price for this arsenal marked Japanese Naval piece includes UK delivery. Sn 20201
