This is an inscription on both sides of shira saya.  Thank you for any assistance.

 

First pic, left, seems to be a date inscription.  I see "month", "two" and "ten" symbols.

部訓練可    Bukunren (ka?) Club practice/training. The last character, if 可 (ka), means that this item may be used by the club/group for training.

Thank you very much Steve M.  The sword is unsigned and I thought the shira saya would have details of its maker...but doesnt seem to be the case.

Hi, My father has a katana who my grandpa left behind after his death. It is said to be made in 1922 bu we have very little info about it. I could fix fotos of the sword but has an image of the text on the sword. Would be much appreciated if someone could help us translate it.
