WWII Sword Bring Back from the Pacific :

What appears to be an antique Japa nese sword unmarked or as far as we can tell unmarked with a strange combination of handle materials including an iron tsuba. Was part of a wwii bring back. Notice the fancy sailor knots on the wood scabbard. Blade has a visible active hamond some very mild rust. Curious piece. Could have been an officers sword.
