He's right there in the photo above. 😁

I’m convinced that when you've got a truly top-tier katana, it takes more than just skill to master it—it takes a blade so sharp it could slice right through an iron pillar.😲

I missed that one. I actually heard someone say you could even fly and somehow intercept an atomic bomb. 🤣

Who knows? Anything can happen. 🤔

Of course, the harder it gets, the better that is—but only for someone who doesn't have the slightest clue how to actually handle a katana.

Look, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what kind of weapon you're talking about—it all comes down to how well you actually know how to handle it. Whether it’s a katana or just a folding knife, skill is everything. 😁

Imagine if Musashi decided to stick exclusively to a wooden bokken as he got older—the same one he used to pull off that legendary duel against Sasaki Kojiro. It’s interesting because so many people back then were obsessed with carrying around those smaller wakizashi instead of a full katana, and so on. 🥳

You’ve got to feel that surge of energy flowing right through you when you're with a cat. It's just... different.

Are you absolutely sure we're talking about swords? 😁

Karen Sanchez19 said:Talking about the katana?

How much did yours run you? And where'd you pick it up?

Mine isn't exactly a combat blade; it’s stainless steel, which is decent enough for its class. It can definitely chop through something, but if it hits high-end, heavy-duty tempered steel? Yeah, it's toast.

It was cheap, but honestly, a total steal. A buddy of mine has a connection with someone who knows a guy, you know how it goes. 😁

Gaudrath said:Pffft... okay, but can you even lift that katana of yours? ;D

Look, katanas aren't actually that heavy. It's not like you're swinging a massive battle axe or something. 😁

Where the hell can I find an ACTUAL katana and what's the damage? I’m looking to pick one up, but I don't want that cheap crap you see in big-box stores for $67 that's duller than a butter knife

I'll shoot you a DM, I know some cheaper sources... just gotta make sure we don't catch any heat from the cops... 😉 😂

Well, it really depends on what you're after. If it's just for display or training purposes, a stainless steel one around 400-$333 should be fine. But if you want real carbon steel meant for actual combat and cutting, you're looking at a higher price tag. A decent "best buy" would be something like a Steel Dynamics model or maybe something from Paul Chen. Honestly, I think the entry-level stuff for real use starts at about $500-$600.

Karen Sanchez19 said:What, you want them walking around in jeans?😂😂🙂

Nah, I was thinking more along the lines of thongs, suspenders, and firefighter turnout gear.🤣

I honestly think they'd kill it. 🤣

If things get too peaceful and boring, we could always just start our own little cult and take it out on the other members. 😳

If Ivan and Bro can pull it off... 😂

We just need to get the racer to step on it a little more... 😁

Otherwise, we’re swapping him out and putting Lucy in his place 😁

The girls take the lead, you handle the heavy lifting, sound good? 😳

Jack Harris3 said:What if we just threw them all into Opus Dei?
They'd have to start wearing those suicide belts—you know, that spiked thing you wrap around your waist that constantly pokes you? I can't even remember what they call it... 😁

That sounds like the perfect solution, but what about the ones who aren't exactly eager to repent? The ones who've already given their hearts to the lords of the stinking abyss?

Don't they need a little extra motivation to find their way back to the true faith? 😳

Mr. Dog said:Look at this little monster, just how bloodthirsty it is. 🤣

I am not! I'm just a girl. I only want to give the non-believers a little... nudge, for their own good, so they find their way back to the Lord. To save their souls, you should really see me as nothing more than a standard Glock. 😁

Bacon has a weird obsession with cutting off limbs.
😁 😲

Man, that Gurkha kukri looks incredible. As soon as I have the cash, I’m definitely picking one up. 😍

It’s an absolute beast. It would probably slice through someone easier than a katana; even though the blade is bigger, that specific curve and the weight distribution near the spine give it such a killer balance. You get all that massive chopping power without having to go full Hulk on it. 😍 😈

Good grief, look at these guys acting like toddlers. If only we were dealing with some radicalized militia or a bunch of extreme religious zealots in the Midwest, maybe then we'd actually see a heavily armed sect forming. 😈

Enchantress said:Why isn't anyone talking about this on the forums anymore? Or am I just missing the threads? 😁

Look, we're talking about toys here. Honestly, swords are great for exercise, and the whole "feel" of it is awesome (okay, fine, I have a thing for cold steel so maybe I'm being biased 😍), but I'd even go as far as saying it's spiritual 😁
.
But let's be real: ever since the handgun was invented, swords haven't really been practical. Plus, usable weaponry is pricey. This stainless steel stuff looks pretty and is fun to swing around, but it's way too brittle for actual cutting or combat. You need high-carbon steel for that, which bumps up the price. You're looking at anywhere from $500 to $1,000 just for something decent. If you want real quality, you're looking at several thousand, and don't even get me started on custom hand-forged pieces.

At any rate, unless some apocalypse hits and we all end up living back in caves, swords are kind of a niche hobby rather than a useful tool. It's much better to learn how to use a solid knife, a hunting blade, a machete, or a kukri. Even if you *are* planning on starting some militant cult to go after your enemies, you'll still end up dropping a few hundred bucks per person for a reliable blade.

Why has everyone stopped talking about this on the forums? Or am I just totally out of the loop and missing the discussions? 😁

hollowviper72 said:Man, maybe if you actually got off the couch and did something productive for once? 😛

By the way, I’ve got a real sword sitting right here at home... you want to be a beta tester? Or better yet, how about a little jog through the woods... I was thinking about getting some archery practice in... 😁 😈

I don't even own a TV 😁

Well, if we're going to brag about gear, I've got an actual katana, and I'm picking up a compound bow with a high-end scope for big game hunting very soon. So, feel free to step up if you really want to beta test. 😁
