Dr. Stein is correct. this is a Japanese gunto made in August 1943 by a cutlerer named Kanenori. He was a an established producer of military swords. This sword is a wirthy example of wartime swords. The point may have been abused, but overall the the condition is not bad. Post thsi sword on the Niponto Message board anf you will get a fuller account.
