Concealability is one of the reasons that I chose the Ninjato

It's mostly because it's shorter than a katana and can be used in a similar way to that of a fencer like Jace. My sword is long enough to be hidden in a slightly longer coat and or in his pants along the leg if buckled on it (while still limiting movements it's not a awkward as a broadsword or katana trying to be hidden).
