      Regarding marks. Photo is not very clear. It seems to be an NCO gunto type 95 (initial type with painted aluminium hilt and brass aoi-shaped guard). Marks from right to left: - star - Tokyo First Army Arsenal trademark (April 1940-1945) - character "To" - Tokyo First Army Arsenal inspection mark. The stamp is not of good quality. The same character must be on the blade on the right sider of a number. -Suya Shoten Co., Ltd. - private sector company trademark (mark is not so clear on the photo). Best regards, Igor

      It seems to be an NCO gunto type 95 (middle type with plain blackened iron guard (tsuba), blackened iron ferrule (fichi) and blackened washers). Character on the blade - Tokyo First Army Arsenal inspection mark. This character (To) is the first character of Tokyo. It means "east". Tokyo means "east capital city".
