      @pokestrike Decorative katana, not much. Actual katana? >$3000

          @pokestrike If you want ninja stuff, a ninja sword which is an utility blade should be far cheaper. Katanas are not ninja weapons.

              @pokestrike No man. There's practically no difference. It's a matter of a katana requiring a fairly complex process to forge, and being pretty delicate; and a ninja sword being a simple blade with a similar shape, but more resistant and used from everything from killing to climbing.

                @nerthos So a katana is a glorified, curved sword that hails in comparison of a cheaper and not as slick sword, wow

                  @pokestrike No, they're certainly better in regards to piercing, cutting, and actual combat effectiveness, but they're that, specialized combat weapons. They're meant exclusively for combat.

            @nerthos Katanas are the sword master race.

              @awlpony Depends on what you're going to do with them, really

                @nerthos Merely upon the base that they're the best balanced blades for most jobs. I like weapons that can be used in many ways equally.

                  @awlpony Only if you're going against unarmored targets. They're hard to use due to the difference in steels used, and fairly brittle in comparison to other swords.

                    @nerthos See I had only accounted for un-armoured targets I suppose. Eh, I prefer gladius types instead, mostly based on how I've learned to fight.

                      @awlpony A wakisashi might be good for you, then. It's easier not to break it due to the shorter blade.

                        @nerthos As long as it can go through someone more than once it'll serve.

                          @awlpony Oh, certainly. That type of steel can go through dozens before losing edge.
