Swords and the Royal Family


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Well after the death of Prince Philip I was wondering if the British Royal family had any Japanese swords presented to them ,As he was in Tokyo Bay for the surrender and possibly the only Royal there I was wondering if he was presented one there ?or any others that have been given over the years to them? Perhaps they have the Honjo Masamune.

I always find this photo of the surrender fascinating
