Wow. Nice. I think its January, Showa 13 (not August). Its got the Shimazu family crest on it as well. Nice ensemble. 

 

I saw a few examples on the net, but I didn't see anything that said these grass script mei where daisaku. Are you sure its a daisaku?

Shimazu Kiyoshi, Major General; Chief of Medical Department of 15th Army, Siam, by 1945. Surrendered a sword to Major General G. C. Evans, GOC 7th Indian Division, at Bangkok, Siam, 11 January 1946. 
 

From the book Shokan, by Richard Fuller. I recommend it to any collector of Japanese swords.
