This oddball little museum appeals to a very specific demographic: people are who are into swords and knives, particularly American swords and knives. This is one of those charming little spots that is basically an obsessed collector's private collection of swords, knives and bayonets from the span of American history. If you're in the right mood, it's charming in its quirkiness.
