Description
First is Japanese Type 30 Bayonet with scabbard. (first 9 photos)I assume this is a training piece as it is not sharp. No stamps I can find.
Handle, blade and scabbard are all tight fit and intact.
The guard is loose on on side (looks like 2 rivits, one is still holding)
Scabbard has a few dents (see photo)
About 15.4" blade and about 20" overall.
The second is without scabbard. Blade is attached but loose.
The handle and guard are tight. Blade tip is broken off.

FROM THE WEB:
"This is a Japanese WWII Arisaka training bayonet. These training bayonets do not have a sharpened blade, however, display the same weight and feel as a ‘real bayonet’. These bayonets were employed by the Japanese armed forces as a training prop for their soldiers. The edge was not sharpened. This would reduce the chances of a recruit getting cut during practice. This bayonet still maintains the original metal scabbard. The size of bayonet is identical to the regulation one. The Japanese soldier trained heavily on hand to hand combat. This was part of the tradition of the Samurai warrior. Many of these bayonets were melted in the later years of the war due to the metal shortage in Japan. That is one of the reasons why these items are hard to find.
The Type 30 Bayonet was a single-edged sword bayonet with a 400 millimetres (15.75 in) blade and an overall length of 514 millimetres (20.24 in) with a weight of approximately 700 grams. The Type 30 bayonet is also known as the “Pattern 1897 bayonet”. Early Type 30 bayonets usually sported a hooked quillion guard which was designed to catch and trap the enemy's blade. By 1942 the quillon was eliminated to save materials and decrease production time, leaving only a straight guard. Type 30 scabbards went from metal (pre-1942), to vulcanized fibre (1942-43), and finally to wood or bamboo (1944-45)."
