I'm looking to add one to my collection and have been doing some research but there are some questions I can't find answers to,
First- what are the collecability of these? They in my opinion have a definite place in Japanese military history.
Second-where some made without a two piece buttstock?
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

Thanks for the link. Looks like they are all one piece stocks at least the ones pictured. What's the colectability on these?

My grandfather brought one home from Okinawa,  My father has it in a display case that I had made.  Don't know the value but it is an heirloom for us therefore irreplaceable.  Have a bayonet on it also, and it has the antiaircraft sights too.

That's awesome. I had a close family friend give me a Japanese officers sword from Okinawa before he passed. He also gave me a Smith and Wesson 38 with 11 notches in the frame above the cylinder. Being a former Marine I  will never get rid of either one of those.
