Hi All ! just have question about ww2 gunto swords, met several times that the sword itself was much smaller than the saya, for example 19 *inch nagasa in a much longer saya, what was the reason? , keep a wakizashi size blade in a big katana size saya ? all of this blades was family blades? cause arsenal blades was "normal" sizes
