Not likely.  This looks like something made no earlier than post WWII.  There is no mekugi-ana: just one of many tells.

No. And I have serious doubts this is Japanese. Looks Chinese, hamon looks fake and doesn't look complete. Honestly...it's bad.

Right about that.  The fittings are obviously brand new though.

I admit, I shouldn't be commenting on hamon, but I don't think the Japanese, with even a fake hamon, would end one like this, right?
