What type of sword is the one described under marks of Heritage for Clan Skellian? there is a description but it would be nice to know if it had a name or was based on a real sword type, and regardless of whether it is factual or fictional, how much damage it is supposed to do.

I don't think it is ever stated. Since the tattoo can be made with any type of sword, I think you could just make a choice.
Personally I went with a Falcata for mine.. An Iberian blade similar to the Greek Kopis. Given the size and design, my gm and I settled on treating it like a machete for damage.

My GM did not want to penalize a T-Man with lower damage for taking an unusual sword so he gives all swords the same damage as a katana, 4D6.

Wouldn't that be 3D6? I am not aware of any sword that does 4 dice.

Rifts Japan page 44 "Low level swords are tested on a straw dummy for strength and sharpness. These are excellent S.D.C. weapons; the katana inflicts 3D6 or 4D6."
