Changes of
a Koshirae
The Guntō which carried out many soldiers and fate of both was confiscated by defeat, and the many were discarded. The

I charge the vicious Chinese seller who sells the China fake Guntō in eBay.→ Cautions a fake
"Ō" of Unicode, such as a Guntō and a tō (sword), is a special character in web.
Since manuscript creation is complicated, the text
uses ordinary "o."
Therefore, please read "o" as "ō."
