Did some research on our "sword"

It's actually a rifle bayonet.

A WWII Japanese Imperial Arisaka Type 30 Model with a hooked quillon, used from 1897 to 1945. It has a serial number but I haven't found a way to look that up for a more accurate date.

About $100-150 value.

Gotta love the internet, eh? :D
