I always loved watching the late night knife and sword infomercials.

Ive been thinking of chopping two pigs in half... Now imagine with some actually trained in the use of swords could do with that thing.

Don't have to imagine, there were many men who met their maker at the ends of those things.

I can and do recommend their katuri by cold steel. That thing no joke chopped down in 5 min a 10 inch thick 15 foot tall tree. Used it as a hatchet. A shovel. A pry bar. A machete and a bush
Wacker. It excells at all and it's like 30 bucks of high carbon dopeness. The only thing thatsven has dulled it was when I used it As a hatchet to chops a submerged tree root growing under the concrete foundation of a house. Took some concrete hunks with the root but it still got the jOb done like a boss. Cold ste is no joke. Their products are as advertised.

As for the Chinese sword google bagua da dao vids to see how some of the swords techniques looked like. Or check out shaolin xiao guan dao vids

I believe cold steel is made in south Africa. Could be American owned though. I recommend supporting them either way

Back in the day, many swords were defined as "1 body", "2 body", etc. blades, in reference to how many could be cut in half with one swing.
From what I understand, they weren't using pigs to test them on, either...

Way cool! Much better than a Ginsu knife...

I love my Cold Steel Kukri machete.....and the latin one is good too....not saying they are the best blades in the world but as you can see they would be great for the garden.

good zombie weapon

I tried to cut my basketball in half with my sword. It bounced back and popped me in the forehead. When they say dont try this at home they mean it.
