actually your wrong the british calvary sword could slice a man in two with enough force although its weight caused issues when in combat

thats a japanese stainless steel katana, it has been tested on prisoners who were up in death row so they were killed using a real katana, they done tests to see how many people 1 sword cut could chop someone into 2 and it was about 3. they are that sharp, they have been banned from many many places/countries all around the world. they weigh about the same as a normal sword (i have held 1 before) so the swing or the fource of the swing must have been what caused it.

anyway, a katana is so sharp, it can cut straight through a piece of paper just by dropping a paper infront of the sword/blade with no problems... :T

and dont forget that the katana blade is forged over and over it is forged over 100 times true fact

AWESOME DRAWING!!! I Really Really Want At Least One Katana! And Nice Stick Figures :P

haha thanks :D i didnt know that but did you know that the japanese stainless steel they use is caleed folded steel or Tamahagane, they are the main ones used but the 2 they use that arent as good/sharp/strong is called spring steel and high carbon steel. you can tell they are real by a few wayd, 1. they sometimes have a symble on the very bottom of the blade so you know it was crafted by a real swordsman 2. a real katana costs thousands (£/$1.000.00-10.000.00 or someting like 10.000.00 anyway) 3. they should come from china/japan 90% of the time. so many more facts so say but maybe another time ^^

...they use is called folded steel... *correction*
