Although the vast majority of Japanese daggers had machine made blades in them some were fitted with traditionally made blades and as such the value can vary by hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. Without photos to confirm just what you have it's really a shot in the dark to suggest values. You are probably correct in that it's a Naval dagger but there are other ranks and branches of service that carried daggers and you may not (no offense intended) even recognize just what you have or from what period.
To allow us to best assist you please post some photos either through a photo hosting site or better yet by way of Association membership.
