[/URL][/IMG] I came across this sword at work, not sure if it's real or what exactly it is, and where it was made. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It appears to be a rare photobucket usage disabled sword...

Do you have additional photos of the blade and the top part of the tang that is not shown?

He keeps the sword on him at work. Good man.

Hate to remind folk that Photobucket doesn't allow third party picture posting like they used to. Post a link to the gallery, or just use a friendlier host. All the old FAQ posts/threads may prove to be useless advice. Or, give Photobucket the money.

The sword smith is Asano Kanesane (Kanezane): Here's info on him from my website:
