Not a family heritage. I collected four Japanese swords. Since there is a need to raise some cash so I can give an expensive C96 a try (not sure its condition yet, just a possibility), so I sold three of my shin-guntos. Unfortunately, the $$ that I earned on EBAY went to my wife's account, and she insisted on spending those money on "useful" things. I lost my swords without gaining anything.... That's the side story.

I listed this sword on EBAY for a week or two, no one bids on it. So this one left in my collection. Recently I bought a rack to put it on my room.
