Length isn't the only thing that differentiates Katana and Ninjato. Katana have curved blades, Ninjato have straight ones, and both are single-edged. And, like most Japanese sword classes, Ninjato don't even have a size limit, while Katana that grow too big become Odachi. Of course, then we have the Chokuto, which are what Japan had before they learned how to make the precursors of the swords they're best known for.

But I'd place this under Ninjato, even if it's a bit larger than normal ones.
