osage outlaw:
Osage scales would look good on it Pappy.
PEARL DRUMS:
Does it look like bamboo by chance?
Pappy:
Not really, looks more like Walnut but since it probably was made in Japan I don't really have any idea. :-\

Pat B:
Princess tree(Paulonia) is used in Japan for boxes given to a bride at her wedding. It is an invasive here in the US and might make good handle scales.

--- Quote from: Pappy on July 03, 2017, 04:08:02 am ---This followed me home a long time ago, just found it while cleaning my garage at the house. Pretty cool bayonet/ has 3 zeros on it for markings, WW2 Jap I am pretty sure . I have had it for years and can't even remember where I got it but glad it showed back up. Also a rake of some kind. ;)

That is a complete WW2 Japanese bayonet. The 3 circles is the chrysanthemum symbol. It might be worth just a light cleaning and keeping it in the original condition..?
