It is too bad that there are no measurements and no scabbard shown with the one pictured in the book as it would also help in this swords identification. Again my thanks. Now if I could just get the writing translated.

Hum, not quite sure how I missed that.

Mine is only about 70cm in length making it much shorter than the one pictured. Still the two do seem very similar.
