Is that a partially filed cast line running down the back of the handle ?

IMO ,It dosnt look the child swords from Japan.

It looks cut down. I would guess a local made it into a machette.

Could be but from where was it produced ?

Yes.

Looks very crude, and not within the Japanese manufacture style, IMO.

Probably Filipino.

Go to the Nihonto website, flash them the same pics and get opinions from them. If you do this please let us know what their opinions are.

Im sure its not for the Nihonto guys.They dont care about this types of "weapons"

Still dont think its japanese.
