Just realized I had missed 2018 update on my collection... Well this is the 2019 update.
To be honest I am far more proud of my collection of sword books at the moment than on the swords. I have some pretty rare titles and incredible research material. Right 3 shelves are reserved for material about Japanese swords and the big one behind the sword rack. I have some books about European swords in bottom left shelf.
On right are my two antique Japanese swords. Shortened Odachi from late Nanbokuchō period it has an old attribution to Hokke Ichijō. It is the widest sword I've encountered in range that is possbile for me (excluding historically important suriage swords and surviving original Odachi). And original length tachi from early Muromachi period with attribution to Naminohira school.
On left are my replica swords.
