it is an all metal and looks authentic to the era. But I assume that, form the sounds of it, the vast majority of Machine made blades were not heat treated or folded. Is that true?

Thank you very much. If anyone else knows different (or the same for that matter) please reply aswell.

WW2 Japanese NCO type 35 Katana : I was wondering if all of these machine made sword were junk or are they just not valued as true katanas but are still folded and tempered blades (just folded and tempered by machine)?
