Japanese fireman use(d?) a kind of pick-looking dealie instead of an axe, I think. Can we have an overall length?

Thanks for the comments so far. The more I look at this the more I think Chinese as well. The total length is 22 inches.

I wait in eager anticipation for a translation

I can't translate it, but I would say the inscription is upside down... just an impression.
