If you're comparing this to Kancolle, then definitely. Even Kancolle started out with more ships. I guess the developers weren't sure of how popular the game would get, so they hesitated in adding more swords. In terms of numbering, the last number is 138 with many unfilled spaces, so I'm sure they'll be adding more swords intermittently, just like they've added Urashima and Nagasone, and Akashi is the next one to come, with two more in the works (and Ookanehira slated for next year possibly).

Unlike Kancolle, there haven't been any major events like those there. So far it's all been campaigns so all the swords are still available for new players, unlike Kancolle, where new players can't get some event-only ships. Since the crafting mechanic is slightly different though, it's not that easy to get all 44 swords available currently...
