Ok i don;'t know why people start raging about things names, but here it is. I know a true blacksmith. My family has been in th emetalworking trade for 3 generations. I kinda know what i'm talkign about here. Swords are made relative toy YOUR body. So this means a katana can be different lengths but it's still a katana! And a bokken is a different sword from the katana. It was usually made fo wood for sparring.

thick card board)

While we're in the business of playing advocate for a higher power . . .Katana is plural or singular as needed "Katanas", "Bokkens", etc just make us look ignorant and place us at risk of ridicule.

Dude, I know. I just americanized it. I don't think I should be overly serious in proving my point to some kid who don't know jack crud about Nihonto.

A Katana is 3 feet long with three and a half fist long handle, a Samurai Sword is 2 and a half feet long and has a 2 and a quarter fist long handle and was usually used from horseback. In other words, you're wrong.

katana is the technical term for samurai sword, but there's more to it. traditionally, a samurai would carry 3 swords: the katana, the waikazashi, and the tanto. katanas aren't all made the same leanght . depending on the blacksmith, the sword would be a different leanght and have more or less curvature. there are also swords called odachi's, odachi's are swords that have a form similar to the katana but are allot longer.

no a samurai sword is not a katana the katana is slightly smaller than a samurai sword, dont believe me get a katana and a samurai sword like i have

not to be rude either, but a katana is in fact a samurai sword.

Not to be rude or anything but swords are DESIGNED FOR THOSE WHO WIELD THEM. If a sword is properly made it is relative to the size of your body. Judging by your name you like swords and knives and throwing stars and you probably have quite a collection, but you don't have any idea what you're talking about.

Oh and PS: "samurai sword" is not a technical term, Katana on the other hand is the generic name for any sword of Japanese make.

Once again, not trying to be rude, but please research the weapons instead of just hoarding them.

You say to use duct tape but then you use electrical tape.

i wouldnt quite call it a "samurai sword". It doesnt look quite like a katana. it is a good concept, and i like the description but i feel a little more preperation in the information delivery would have been better. overall, prettay schweet.
