Sorry, I mean like this: here is a picture of my handles.

@Scogg do you have a picture of the engravings on the handle? Thanks.

Looks interesting Markus, ordered one. Thanks and kind regards from Belgium.

@Nobody Thank you very much! Could this be related to a NCO WW2 sword maybe used on a Japanese Navy fuel depot? It was a bad replacement sword probably made outside Japan and the tag came with the sword. A private from the 2/28 Australian Infantry Battalion came home with it. Here are some pictures.

Or maybe Seikichi Yoshimura?

@John C Thanks! It is older than I thought.

I will post a pic of the complete set.

This wooden tag came with a NCO sword. It could contain the name of the owner and the location where used?

What is written here? Think it is from a Japanese WW2 medal? Kind regards.

@Scogg Hi, thanks for thinking about me. Been in West Australia for a month, which was fun. I only found one interesting private museum on a farm with some Japanese stuff. Will make a topic of it. I do love the sword you found! Interesting blade on it too. Also found something similar but with a parade blade. I will post pictures soon. Kind regards

And it looks like it was mounted...wonder how that looked like? Any pictures exist?

Correct but I suppose we also have members who live in Japan?
