Does everyone here own a friggin katana? I just noticed this...

No, but when I'm older, I'm going to collect them as a hobby...

OWN ONE? death I've got a plastic one, does that count?
Might buy a real one later w/ a dragon right on the blade!

That's why you get a real Katana, not one sold at the Mall.

Mall ones break within three weeks.

Import one, they range in price so maybe just get a short length katana.

Mall ones are made really fast and cheaply.

Real katanas are hand crafted to be perfect.

Indeed.

My friend has a bonzai sword from a Japanese officer in World War II, got it from his grandfather.

They vary by maker and design...just think in the multiple hundreds range, going up to the thousands.

good quality ones made by Hanwei(Paul Chen) can range from $500 to $3000
