The Japanese swords - particularly the Katana (long blade) and the Wakizashi (short sword) when displayed on the horizontal sword endure, should be displayed as follows:

1. EDGE Upwards. This means the sword would be curving downhill. There is a tendency about peoples part to put the sword edge down having the sword curve upward. Perhaps this is because it appears Asian or this looks like Asian buildings. regardless, it is incorrect. If the sword is put with the edge straight down, there is pressure around the blade inside the saya (scabbard). That is bad for the edge. Yet another way of looking at it would be that the sword needs to be placed upon the particular rack the same way any Samurai would carry the sword.

2. If the handle be dealing with to the right or to the particular left? This is a matter of preference and viewpoint. Some people say that whenever the handle will be facing to the right, it may easily be draw from the stand, thus this implies aggression. It might also imply functionality. I highly question a Samurai would have placed the sword in a way that made it hard to use. Some people say that whenever the handle is facing to the left it implies peace as well as non-aggression. Sometimes it is just a matter of equipment design.

Having look at this article, you will now forever notice on the net, in the movies, in magazines, in martial art universities, the way the Japanese swordstend to be displayed. If the swords are incorrect, this would be a sign that the owner just isn't trained in swordsmanship but rather has them for just a decoration.

A lot is actually revealed in the method the Japanese katanas are displayed.
