    Any blades under 15 cm do not have to be registered except daggers. Daggers over 5.5 cm are always illegal. Usually, a kogatana does not need to be registered only because its blade length is less than 15 cm. There is no description of mekugiana in the Act for Controlling the Possession of Firearms or Swords and Other Such Weapons.
