hmm ill probably not use it for anything besides testing it out an looking at it i just think it would be nice to have... just in case i have to shut a dog up next door hhahahaha
... aww yes nunchaku i had a pair but i think they broke from mis use :-)
That's awesome. Now you can put a warning sign outside saying 'WARNING! I R NINJA!.'
That video is the funniest thing I've seen all day. All those fat losers, thinking they're great because they're playing with ninja swords. Especially the one with the tie. aahahahaha
somehow this one seems way to appropriate for me

Got one, bought it for 15 euros, was suppose to be from some kinda old skilled guy, I usually play with it, though I use my baseball bat or fists if things go down.
okay.. they look smexy..i guess my neighbor needs to see these. he's into swords and katanas and etc.

with a sword or a gun you dont need to be in peak physical shape, far from it infact, even you could use oneQuote:

There's a reason why fencing is performed that way: it's an effective sword fighting style, regardless of the rules of the sport. Far more effective than, say, "fat bloke with a katana" style.Quote:

feudal samurai were usually fat too. of course there will always be thsoe who were in fantastic shape but for the most part they too, even men of legend were not perfect specimens
fencing is great if you are fighting someone with a similar blade infact a lot of martial artists take their attacking movements from fencing. fencing as a sport though is worlds away from having your gut cut wide open for each mistake you made.
having been stabbed and having worked with people who have been stabbed, sometimes multiple times, i know and it is plain to see that those with a layer(s) of fat come out of it better
Got a fair few swords and other goodies myself, prefer blunt weapons though, staves or tonfa are a helluva lot more fun to spar with.
never been a fan of the tonfa myself, not sure why either, i just never really took to them
Loads of ways to fight with em, I preferred using em more like a mace, with the handle pointing towards the opponent; great for parrying and getting control of their weapon.
There's a difference between the "I'm a gladiator and I live to fight" kind of fat and the "I'm an obese douche in a shirt and a neck tie" kind of fat.Quote:

nice sword, and nice to see the thread turned into a history class xD
yeah, but fencing is a SPORT. Exy is talking about REAL martial art, you know... the fat is good for protection, so it'll be harder for the opponent to reach your flesh.Quote:

Fencing can well be considered a martial art, and it's a perfectly valid form of swordsmanship.
Besides, my point was that the fat guy just looks funny trying to be all hard with his sword. Made me laugh.
if that was entirely truthful then why after i said this;Quote:

ill get some of mine up later
I dont recall him trying to be "hard" he was marketing the sword and was showing examples of what it can cut, its not like the company hand picked an overweight guy to cut a bamboo stick for people like you to laugh.
yeah sure, i wanna see you utilize you uber leet fencing skills when a thug comes up to beat the crap out of you.Quote:

You underestimate an overweight or underweight person, and then you realize that you're the one with your face on the floor.
I never really used swords before, but by looks alone, I prefer the Long blade katana.
But like they said in the video, that sword depends on the situation you are in...
Nice sword.
how much did it cost you.
