This sword and it's legend baffles me. All I could find on Wikipedia is that it was commisioned by some king. In Dragonball, this sword was stabbed in the ground, and kept the gates of hell closed. You can also find this sword in Dark Cloud 2 and Ninja Gaiden. And I just don't know where all the famousness of this sword came from.

too much culture for /b/ to handle.

Early Japanese understood, much like the Mach 5, that more blades is always a good thing.

Empires and epic win followed.

Name of the sword please?

There was more than one weapon like it. They are some of the oldest in the country and were possibly gifts/commissioned pieces from the Korean peninsula. I believe only one or two of them survive today in temple collections, but I could be wrong.
