Ok despite my last post I was able to take it apart. No markings under the handle though, please see the pics and let me know what you think.

Ok so I need a little help taking this tanto apart. I have removed the pin as you will see in the photos but I am not sure how to remove the blade from the handle. As you can see it has a small crack so I want to be sure I do it right. Thanks for your help!

Hello I am new to the forum and a beginning collector but lived in Japan as a kid and a long time practitioner of Kendo so very interested in swords. I saw a tanto in a store the other day on consignment. The owner of the shop had it advertised as a WW2 suicide knife. The pin holding the tsuba looks like Bakelite to me, any help identifying what it is and its approximate age would be really helpful, I am trying to decide if I should buy it. Thanks so much!
