Philippine military sword?
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			A Philippine sword, but with a Japanese accent.  A 21” blade, 9” grip, copper bolster and a distinctive brass guard and brass fittings.  It is stamped “Philippines and 136” which seems to be a military inventory number.  I searched the internet and this forum and can find no other similar item.  I am hoping someone has seen something akin to this weapon. With regards
