Hi all, Wow - thanks so much for the responses and especially the video 'how to' take apart the sword; now achieved! Please see attached the picture with what appears to be a signature?

Hi all, New to the forum, with a Q regarding my Grandfathers sword I have inherited. My Grandfather served in Sumatra in 1946, where he oversaw some of the disarming of the Japanese post War. A Japanese Major he worked with presented him with this sword, which I think is a Type 98 army sabre (thanks google). Just hoping someone might be able to confirm it? I'm not entirely sure what we want to do with it; it is quite a cool heirloom that I wouldn't part with quickly, but an indication of value would also be appreciated.
