[ s541 ] ww2 Japanese officers sword signed and seki stamped

Description

ww2 Japanese officers sword signed and seki stamped- I haven't deciphered the mei yet & probably won't as I couldn't be bothered :-)
Blade is reasonable, it does have a fair amount of staining, if you wanted to sit there with utchiko powder & choji oil you could lessen the dark stains as it will clean up quite a lot,
Nice hamon where it can be seen, good sarute, tsuka mounts are all quite good with exception of 1 x break in the binding where the mekugi peg has rubbed through it. The scabbard is one of the alloy types that is well known for losing all their paint, scabbard is missing the drag fitting off the bottom, they are sourced easily enough,
