Hi....
This sword it seem not old but also not that recently made in my opinion.
The sheath made of leather.
Please, anyone could help to explain what is the meaning behind of simbols on this sword? ( stars , chinese word ?

)
Very appreciated for the help and thank you.

Can't help with the characters, but I will suggest that the acid-resist on the blade looks like very recent work.

Do you have any photos of the entire sword? Is it two-edged or single? Any curve at all?

This is a newly made sword from China or even possibly from Indonesia.
