I just came across a Japanese Arisaka Bayonet for a Type 99 rifle. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what has been stamped or carved into the handle.

I'm not sure the detail is big enough to read??
Hope I don't have it upside down? It is still very early morning in Japan , so give it a few hours for a reply.

I guess! Been restoring this blade for a bit now and its starting to look really good! I have never been a huge fan of Japan, spent a month there and just didn't enjoy it much, However the history and how well preserved so much of it is was amazing. And I do love history and Japan has a brutal and unique history. Really would love to know what this says, I have 4 other Japanese rifles but none of them have any personal markings.
