I see a reference called CS for blade type.
I am not sure what this means
I only know of straight , anatomic, flared , conic types.

Yes. CS stands for Chinese Style I think

Yes
Chinese penhold blades are usually oval but Japanese & Korean penhold blades are usually rectangular.

The Chinese handle is also probably shorter than JK blades
