"The reason why the blade that kills people should become the sword that brings people to life is because many people are killed without reason in a disordered society. If we use Setsuninto in order to calm the disordered society and the society becomes calm as the result, Setsuninto is exactly Katsuninken. That is the reason why I created these names."
「人をころす刀、却而人をいかすつるぎ也とは、夫れ亂れたる世には、故なき者多く死する也。亂れたる世を治めむ爲に、殺人刀を用ゐて、已に治まる時は、殺人刀即ち活人劔ならずや。こゝを以て名付くる所也。」
