This style sword should sell pretty well once the kamis get the handle right. I'd like to get one of these in the near future.

Maybe I'm missing something here, and if I am please let me know.
Why would anybody want to spend $145 or $165 on a knife/sword that you know you have to monkey with before it is worth anything at all?
Why not take that money and go after a DOTHD blade that will be of some value to you?
Like I said, maybe I'm missing the point, but I thought the idea behind owning knives and swords was so that you could cut things that need cutting.

Actually the handle is correct, it's the edge of the blade that's on the wrong side. Think scissors, the sharp edge is on the straight edge and the rounded edge is not sharp. These swords are reversed...doesn't make them wrong, just not a Gununting.
