You've made my SWORD angry!

Order here: https://www.bladeforums.com/help/2024-traditional/ - Order as many as you like, we have plenty.
I can help on the Short Butaniku!Hog Nose War Sword or the Swamp Rat Waki would be my favorite of the ones I own. Probably the Waki would be the very favoritest.
Would love to get a Short Butaniku, if I recall its length correctly (thought it was pushing 20", but probably have that wrong).
TNT is hot, too. And Rucki. Dang.... too many. But still sticking with the Waki as my favorite. I am SO glad I ran across one of those for sale.
Ooooooooo..... that's about perfect! The only thing that would make it better is if the blade was wider. My Waki is 1.375" wide, at under a quarter-inch thick. I find it seems to handle a little better than, say, my BG AK. However, I think maybe the specs you quote on the Short Butaniku are more in line with real short-ish katanas. Either way, I WANT ONE!!I can help on the Short Butaniku!
Specs:
Blade Length: 24"
Blade Width: 1.16"
Blade Thickness: 0.27"
Handle Length: 12"
OAL: 36"
Weight: 43oz - (G10)
Its a little beast!
Agreed.Yep short butaniku is still my #1 to aquire.. would be nice slightly thinner but it's always nice to be able to bludgeon something with the back end too
Your welcome... or sorryI never thought I'd really want a sword. Just so impractical.
NOW THOUGH.
NOW I want several.
YepDoes anyone have pics they can post of the, rarer than Hen’s teeth Checkette or Dragon’s Fang they could post just for Shits and Giggles.
Thanks in advance,
