Thanks for the additional info Jim!

I came across this seven branch sword when I was looking up information on the Baekje Kingdom: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baekje under the section of "Relations with Japan"

My impression was that its function was as tribute, not as a "sword catcher." It's a neat object, but it's made out of mild steel.

Best,
