I found this sword.
Can anyone help me figure out what kind of sword it is? And help me figure out what's written on it?

I think it's a ninjato or something, so I'd imagine that the writing would be Japanese.

Although at the base of the blade there's an inscription that says "China", so this might prove to be disappointing.

Even if it's not very authentic, I guess I'm still a bit curious about the writing.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'll dump more pictures.

Looks like a cheap Chokuto replica made in China, the back of the scabbard reads "katana all over the place" and the inscription on the front means "Refain from violent behavior" which is one of the 5 precepts of Shotokan Karate
