Japanese war leaders in northeastern China when the pseudo-sergeant or pseudo-police saber is a wooden target?

General knife handle is wooden (such as kitchen knife handle is cheap ash wood), a little more advanced just take good wood (such as yellow pear wood). Advanced and then in a good texture on the wooden handle inlaid with gold, silver or jewelry, the highest level of other precious materials (such as rhinoceros horn, ivory, etc.). But once used as a cold weapon, there are also leather, cord wrapped around the sword reserved "tongue" to make the handle of the knife.

In the past, the quality of a knife was not only the quality of the blade, but also the quality of the handle. And the quality of the handle was often a reflection of the status of the holder or the quality of the knife itself.

So, the Manchurian pseudo-police, police sergeant whether to wear a knife I do not know, but this kind of people have a lower status, even if the knife will not be a high-level. But this kind of people configure the ceremonial role of the knife is greater than the actual use, so it should be wood for the handle.
