Has anyone here looked at what it costs to get a decent sword ? Out of curiousity, I browsed a little at swordforums and checked some of the makers websites and the AK-47 looks like a bargain in comparison. You get a nearly indestructible, well-made, useable (if you have any uses for a sword, that is) blade of INFI for well under $1K. You do not get any sort of historical dressing if that is what you are after, but useable (as opposed to decorative only) swords seem to start at about the same price (for standard models, not customs) as an AK-47 and go up MUCH higher.
I know this is apples and oranges, but if you are on the market for a sword, the AK looks like a good deal!
