Good friend of mine recently purchased this Shin Gunto in early type 94 mounts with Kanemoto Mei. Looking for information on the 2 character Mei in particular (Real ? & what Generation ?) Any other information that can be added is much appreciated too!

This is obviously an oil quenched, non-traditionally made sword. There were several "Kanemoto" working in the Showa period (1926-1989). I remember there were a couple of Rikugun jumei tosho and maybe one Kaigun jumei tosho.

 

At any rate this is NOT the famous Kanemoto you are hoping for. Probability 99.9999%.
