Japanese Sword Museum: Hatsudai

This small, difficult-to-find museum will be of great interest to Japanese sword enthusiasts and collectors, although the lack of English-language descriptions might limit its appeal among the general public. The facility is run by the Society for Preservation of Japanese Art Swords, and there are usually a few dozen swords from their 150-sword collection viewable at any given time, along with some armor and mountings.
