  6. Zero-sen(零戦) is an Unofficially abbreviated way to call the Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter in Japan. Not likely it's an official term for crew/pilot gunto though.Never hear anyone use that.
  7. It was made of 安來鋼(Hitachi Metal Ltd),not 玉鋼,that's why it has 昭 stamp。 戦前において日立金属安来工場の前身である安来鉄鋼合資会社の伊部喜作らが、松江電灯協力のもと、東洋で初めて高速度工具鋼を電気製鋼で開発したことで近代製鋼においても更なるブランドを確立した。 現在は島根県安来市の日立金属冶金研究所で開発され同安来工場で、先端技術を駆使して造られた材料の強さが求められる刃物・金型、高性能機械等向けの工具鋼を代表とする特殊鋼すべての名称と定義されている。これらは「YSSヤスキハガネ」(YSSはYasugi Speciality Steelの略)として登録商標されている。
