My dad makes some realy cool knifesonly thing is they always weigh so much that using them in hand to hand would be difficult lol, good for chopping stuff but unless ur a gym head with massive arms like bigger than most ppls legs then they're a bit useless LOL can cut firewood tho ..... Looks like a knife acts like an axe :/ , but what I'm sayin is learn to make ur own katana's then u can make em post shtf cos there wnt be online stores and post men no more :)
 
It is however a very noisy process, I think havin stocks before shtf is the way but knowing how to make them is defiantely the way, all you need is some steel a hammer and a nice hot fire and some wood and small hand tools like a hacksaw and stuff like that

dude sounds like id want one LMAO
 
Yeah cos they're a ******* to use cos of the hand and a half handle lol
 
******* swords aren't as practical as people think they are.. Your better off getting a good machete..
 
Very true emp, I swung one for several years during SCA battles that were demos for the public. Oh Lordy, my inner nerd just popped out with that admission.
 
Warriors are a bunch of punks (Think the screaming Pict) and usually get their ass handed to them by Soldiers (Think Roman Legion) get the job done!! Otherwise a good little poem/saying.

My favorite is 'There is no greater love than that of a man who is willing to place his own mortal flesh between war's devestation, and his homeland.

And those ******* swords aren't used like long swords. Correct me if I'm wrong Anorak, but from what I remember, they were two handed and made for people battleing others in plate armor. You would hold it in front of you and to block would move your hilt in the direction you wanted. Kind of depended a lot on momentum for striking. You see people use them in the movies where they were swinging one or two in each hand. doesn't work that way, would break your wrist. And drawing it is a bitch. If someone had that on their belt you could kill them before they drew it. They have to pull their arm so far up, they lose visibility, and raise their elbow so someone with a knife could drive it into your armpit and then your done for.
 
A true ******* would normally be drawn before battle so that you would wade into the fight with it. It can be used one handed if the user has the body mass and hand, wrist and arm strength, pulling the blow at the last moment with only one hand is damn near impossible due to the momentum. Used two handed, it is a formidable weapon. They were used a lot to unhorse knights by striking the warrior or cutting and breaking the horse's legs.
