BEAST Posted November 29, 2022 Share #3 Posted November 29, 2022 Cool look to it. Hopefully you'll get a correct identification, but it looks to me like a last ditch bayonet. If you do get a better answer elsewhere, please post it here as I would like to learn what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy87Guy Posted December 6, 2022 Share #4 Posted December 6, 2022 According to this site: https://oldmilitarymarkings.com/japanese_markings.html It was produced by Toyoda Jidoshoki Seisakusho (Toyoda Automatic Loom Works) under Nagoya supervision. The pommel shape is definitely different, which makes the guess of a last ditch production make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
