Interesting dirk.
It does look like a dirk that would be connected to the Manchurian navy. You
might want to go to imperialjapanmedalsandbadges.com and buy the ebook: 1935 Manchukuo Navy Uniform Ordinance. Maybe there is a drawing of the dirk within the ordinance, and the ebook is less than a dollar. Just a thought.

Evil Nihonto doesnt want 2 register me . Maybe because Im from Russia

Nah..we like our Russian members, and have quite a few.
Any probs registering, it is your spam filter deleting the confirmation email. Just contact me and I'll manually confirm registration.
Looks like this one is so scarce, there is little info on them out there. You might want to contact someone like Jim Dawson who wrote the book, see if he has any info. http://www.stenger-scott.com/

Ps - No NRS or NR-2 knives floating around anywhere I guess?

Interesting...I have what I believe are the same two marks on one of my IJN daggers.
