I don't see this name often. Is this equivalent to other steel with other name?

That link answers the question.

The 45 is simply the average carbon content (0.45%)

The link arunmrao gave shows AISI equivalent for this Japanese steel is 1045 or 1046. You can try them on matweb or anywhere else you like.
