Hi Donsamadhi. Welcome to the Forum.
Just for comparison, here are some pics of a Japanese Military, Type-95, NCO Shin-Gunto Officers sword manufactured at the Tokyo Arsenal between 1935-1945. Hope this gives you a better idea of what to look for.

So, there aren`t such type of swords which are authentic(with dedication from imperator).These ones I showed are just the idea of Chinese.Well, I see there is no reason to continue this subject.Thank you anyway for all information, links and photos.
It would be the warning for other novice collectors

Best regards.
