1st is late war naval sword. 2nd may be an older blade. Can you remove the handle?

[GHP]

I cannot read the first one, but it is a naval sword (stainless steel) as evidenced by the circle-anchor stamp.

The only kanji I'm 100% certain of is the first one, 伊.

Perhaps one of our sword scholars can find a hint from these:
伊尽小波
I'm about 80% confident of that last one 波.

I've done various google searches with other similar kanji, but cannot come up with a Showa-era swordsmith [or ANY swordsmith]. So obviously I'm getting a lot of things wrong.

Also, I'm quite confident the first two kanji-compounds are NOT
伊豆 Izu
伊賀 Iga
伊国 Ikuni
伊勢 Ise
伊藤 Itou
伊達 Date


Heeelllllllpppppppp
