If you can't read the Chinese characters on the blade, you don't deserve it.

Nice sword though.

The shoe-lace tsuka-ito is also quite comedic.

tsuka is too short.

Also Fail for chinese lettering on a traditionally japanese blade.

Its not even Kanji, its straight up mandarin! >:(

Fail. Judging by the length of the handle, it's a naginata.

Did you happen to buy this at A-Kon over the weekend? I ask because the convention just ended, and there sure were a fucking ton of retards carrying around these things they bought there.

If that's the case, here's a hint: Pretty much everything sold in the dealer's room at A-Kon is a cheap Chinese or Taiwanese ripoff/bootleg of the real thing. Not just the weapons, either. Very little merchandise there actually came from japanese or US distributors. Most of the merch you'll see came from China, Taiwan, or Thailand.

If the merch you bought represents something held by a japanese or a US licensor, and it says made/printed in Taiwan or Thailand, it is 100% illegal and you got ripped the fuck off, and the item is worth no more than the raw materials that it is made of.

I like to always bring that up to the staff but nobody ever cares. So much for the "no bootleg" policy.

Enjoy your ripoff.

Try looking beyond your mirror. The blade is the Bishu Osafune Norimitsu Odachi.
Overall: 377cm (Around 12' 4 1/2")
Cutting edge: 226.7cm (Around 7' 5 1/4")
Tang: 151cm (Almost 5')
Thickness: 2.34cm (Almost 1")
Blade collar: 5.85cm (Just over 2")

if he can handle worth a damn he'd have to know something about them and if he bought the cheapo imitation it proves he doesn't. fail.

everyone owns a "katana". More swords from other cultures. European FTW.

I once saw what looked like a Custom Shop Les Paul in a guitar store on sale for $100. I asked the clerk about it and he showed me that it was actually made out of driftwood and the pickups were the cheapest kind you can get. Turns out it was an imitation from China.

And its a little battered looking, however compared to many it is very nice.

agreed. i have to say i am a fan on single sided curved blades, but the katana is way over used. it's gotten stupid. at this point, i would rather see anything made of bronze, because you don't see it to often.

bronze tarnishes easily.. and the cheap 403 stainless steel they make THESE and other cheap ass blades with is easy to maintain, but near impossible to hurt someone with.

Spot on. Most of the stuff you find at conventions are just toys compared to the real thing.

A real Japanese sword, made by a traditionally trained and licensed smith, costs thousands of dollars. A good practice sword will set you back at least a few hundred.

Clean your damn knock-off. Jesus, I'm glad you DONT have a real sword. You'd cut your own damn balls off quicker than you could clean it.
