So there has been the gladius and the Japanese style swords waki and ruk but not that I'm saying it should be made but what about the ninja sword? I just think it would be neat to have all the japanese style swords with the Busse or kin touch to it?
 
What is the difference between a 'ninja sword' and the multiple Bussekin swords already made?
 
I like the idea. A short, straight, stiff all-purpose sword.
A friend told me that the Ninjas used their swords more like a tool.
I'd get one, with a DB kydex scabbard. :)
Swinecosa
 
Only if it has the INFI stars as the Tsuba :)
 
That's a Samurai sword.^ We want a Ninja-to.
With, INFI throwing spikes too.
:D

Lycosa pretty much hit the nail on the head and I'm sure there is more to them too! It was late at night and I was just doin some random thinking! I'd be in I mean I still need a wak and another ruk but I'd be in for a busse or kin ninja sword!

Ninja sword?

Scrapizashi (SP) is the blade you are talking about.

I do believe that the Samurai used the smallest of their swords (wakisashi?) as an all around tool.... They kept the larger sword for fighting.....

Read that somewhere :D

The Busse AK47 is pretty much "all around" IMHO .....
 
The Ninja-to was a straight blade.
The wakizashi was an auxiliary weapon to the katana.
 
I've always heard the ninja-to most likely never existed, that it is a thing that people today attribute to ninjas having with no historical basis. Kinda like the horns on Viking helmets, they never actually did that- someone made it up.....I looked up the wikipedia article and it says pretty much the same thing.

It did exist. The Ninjas used whatever sword, blade, they could acquire or have made on the cheap.
 
Ah yea, I don't know, just what I've heard - I am pretty sure about viking helmets not having horns though:p

If I was a Ninja, I'd wear a Viking helmet with the horns. :D

Now THAT I'd like to see... Where the heck did Rolf go... Don't know, but there's a Ninja over there in the shadows wearing a Viking helmet with horns!!! :eek:-----:D

Rolf is right, the AK has a Katana arch to the blade and so does the Butaniku.
Closer to the straight Ninja-To would be the SRKW Waki. It has a straight blade but would need to be about 10" longer.
