    Now this is not the end of the cigar. It is not even the beginning of the end of the cigar. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning of the cigar.

    @Vision whats the back story on that? How did you come to possess it? A family member bring it back? Love WW2 history.

    Unfortunately nothing amazing. My father was at a yard sale in New Hampshire and noticed a rifle in the garage. It was a Type 38 (I believe) with the bayonet attached. My dad asked how much and gave the guy $100 for both. With my dad not having his license we gave the rifle to a friend who does. He registered it and sold it for $250. My dad got his $100 back and I kept the bayonet. I have a few KAR98 bayonets and other WW1 WW2 artifacts laying around.

    Edit: spelling

    Also… the Imperial Seal was ground off the gun.

    Most surviving arisakas had the imperial seal ground off. Part of the surrender deal with Japan.
