New acquisition japanese WWII T94 shin gunto

Curvature doesn't look like the standard gunto style, and I guess it's a proper hamon we can kind of see there? Fittings look relatively decent too. It'll be interesting to see what those who know more about these things have to say about it, but for the moment I would actually suspect that it isn't a machine made blade, but a more traditional one, of unknown quality.
