I just bought a Sprint/Sanyo Katana. Anyone have one, and how do you like it?

What are the pro's and cons I should look out for?

Discuss.

Someones gotta save this thread...



While I do own various swords I do not yet own any Japanese swords, which I need to rectify. The Japanese revered the sword, as every culture should.

You CANT GET a Japanese sword. Its illegal to remove one from the country. A legitimate katana though would be the sh!t!

Would be cool though...:thumb:

I would settle for a sword made in the Japanese style using Japanese techniques. I had no idea it was illegal to remove one from Japan. Why is that?

I also want a nice pattern welded blade. Mmmm... :drool:



This thread's about swords now.

And, like virtually any other sword owner today, have no idea how to use it.
Hi there. My name's Ciaran, it's nice to meet you. Would you like me to teach you how to fight with a sword? :wave:

We do much more than dress up in funny clothes and drink too much beer. We study and practice medieval fighting texts as well.
