Thank you Barry for the prompt reply.  I will list the sword as just "October 1943."  The characters on the pictured tang are 天照山鍛錬場鍛之 and as already indicated in post #2 it was made by Tenshōzan 天照山.  The earliest date I have seen is 1938 and the latest is the one listed above.  The swords made after 1943 appear to be undated.
