Who ordered this super UBE?

Hey Dave, I've got a katana you can have for just $175.00, which includes shipping.
 
If it is the HI UBE Katana I am not intrested. Or are you serious?:rolleyes:

Be back later, I have one more session today.:)
 
Actually Dave, I am serious. It's a shingun to with a custom handle which is around sixteen inches long, like the old war swords. Very sharp, and proven. Has an excellent saya in the Imperial Army style.
 
They're more Samurai-ish. Uncle, you have mail, if MSN and AOL are speaking again....
 
Finn,
Sorry man, I kinda need one that has the Iaido 10-12" handle, nor do I have the $175 right now. I think you might want to get a pic and post it in the sword forum.

The older styles are really neat, just that they wont let me use them in class.
Plus, I will be using this on real people so I need to get one of the 'pansyfied' dull edge ones. I am probably going to start with a real cheapo $100-150 one with a wood scabbard. It is inevetible that you split your first scabbard, so why spend $600-800 on something you are going to have to write off?

Funny thing is that the ones with no edge, in the traditional style, are more expensive than those with a real edge.

I can go for awhile on Katanas...so let me stop here. :)
 
Japanese blades can be interesting. I am told the signature on this one appears to date it to the first decade of the 16th century. Christopher Columbus was probably exploring the Americas when this was made. I wonder if the warranty is still in place?

STOP IT, N2S! I'm fairly sure that's an offense worthy of a smacking!
:)
(Nice, real nice blade, bro.) As if HIKV wasn't bad enough. Sheesh!
 
The Dave lite just went out and a new one came on which said, Walosi.

It's gone but don't fret, Dave. Wal said if you really wanted the knife he would sell it to you for $350.
 
Bill,
Great! My Bud Wal got it! "Wait" Can you hear the music?? It's to the tune of,"It's Budlight time"! ONLY the words now are, "Its Hernia time"! Hee!:D Now you all can stop picking on poor Dave!

Congratulations Wal! You will have the arms of Popeye the Sailor before too long.

Dave, get some sleep.

Not2sharp, thanks for the pix of the fine wakizashi, it looks to have the signature of a test cutter on the tang.
 
I wonder if Terry can make a "Truss Sheath"?? :rolleyes: Maybe something productive has come from the mind (?) of the researcher at long, long last :D
 
Wal,

If you have a backhoe, you might try welding the blade on the bucket. It'd be a lot noisier doing chores but you would avoid those unsightly bulging forearms.
 
Wal,

Now you can call the Airforce and volunteer to clear a new runway for them.

Popeye forearms, AND flat feet, so I guess the weight is no problem. Tsimi had me worried with the hernia bit for a minute, but I guess sitting in an ambulance all day has made him sensitive HEE :rolleyes: Most of them have the old "cinder block suspension".
