Thank you all for your information. I guess the joke's on me.
All of my other swords were attracted to a magnet, puting the lie to the old myth that a magnet wouldn't stick to stainless so it never occured to me to try it even though I was suspicious of the brightness of the blade. Sure enough <smacks forehead> it is about as attracted to a magnet as a frog of the amphibous persuasion. Now it can join my "Ninja Sword Set" in hiding.
