Hi all. I’ve yet again got to ask for some assistance in translating this document which seems to be in a different format to the ones I’ve seen of late.
 

I have managed to get as far as “firearms swords registration certificate” far right column, i also get that it was registered 1 June 1943 in the Wakayama prefecture. 
Registration number 9407 wakayama perfecture.

 

I don’t understand the details about the length / warp type of sword  if that detail is present as the format seems different. Any other useful information on it would be of interest to know.

 

i think it references an eye hole as well ?

 


Thanks once again in advance.

Type : 刀 -> Katana
Length : 六四.三cm -> 64.3cm

Sori : 一.六cm -> 1.6cm

Mekugi-ana : 弍 -> 2

There's something written under Mumei but I can't really read it.. Omote zaya?
