| Nice Quality blade, (from the looks of it) and I love the sheath! I bet it would cut a Watermelon in half with one swing [)]
If you don't mind my asking.... how much did it set you back? | |

| That's a nice looking blade. Simple, yet attractive.
Is it full-contact quality steel? | |

| | Very nice indeed! I'm a sucker for collecting swords myself. I don't think I've ever seen a sheath and handle with a wood finish quite like that. What were the custom aspects of the order? | |

That is a nice blade, though. I like how the handle and the sheath match.
Some may think it is a lot, but when you consider their life time guarantee and trade in policy, it is well worth it.

| Very cool looking blade. It's funny but the same thing happened with my second sword(a ninjato knock off). My younger brother ran his thumb across the blade claiming it was not sharp at all. He's lucky he didn't need any stiches.
Wow these guys do some very cool work. Hopefully I'll be at their level of craftsmenship in twenty years or so. | |

| How good is cutting butter?
A blade is powerful and balanced when can cut the strongest and the softest with the same exactitude. | |

I was just breaking it in, giving it its first taste of blood.

Seriously though, I've been collecting swords for about 3 years now, and this is only the second (and worse) time that I have cut myself. I am usually very careful/paranoid when I clean my swords, but just goofed up this time. | |

| I'm wondering 2 things...
1) What were you doing with it that it required cleaning in the first place?
2) Have you cleaned it since attempting sepuku? | |

Swords should be 'cleaned' after each handling. Oils from skin and water from the milk jugs I was cutting can rust a blade.
My wife cleaned my sword while I was tending to my thumb.

| Couplafew thoughts:
That 'lifetime' guarantee, might not be quite as long as you thought.
I can see it now: Hon, it's your turn to try (while sopping up blood)
Before the next cleaning, make sure you bequeath your minis to someone.
Nice looking blade.

| As a fellow blade/weapon collector, I can appreciate the quality of that particular blade. Nice one. I still prefer my Paul Chen Practical Katana and only cut myself with an
axe, by accident, although I test the blade's sharpnesses for fun ;) | |

You get a nifty new sword like THAT and you try it out on MILK JUGS?

| It's cheap.
It's more about skill than power for me. I know what these swords can do, but I'm more interested in seeing how many cuts I can get out of one milk jug. | |
