Need Info On Arisaka Bayonet With Wooden Scabbard

[57tr6]

I bought this off a guy for $25. He said it had been hanging in the barn since his grandfather brought it back from WW2.
Wondered if anyone had any info on the wooden scabbard,like if they were made toward the end of the war perhaps. I see a lot of metal ones but not wooden.

My dad used to have one. Have not seen it in over 40 yrs.

I believe that is a type 30 Bayonet (( Late-war substitute-standard or "last-ditch" sword bayonet.)) Great find

From the arsenal marking on the blade, it was made by Toyoda Jidoshoki Seisakusho (Toyoda Automatic Loom Works) under Nagoya supervision.
