The only reason I think it might be property of one Mr. Carradine is because both he and Madsen said that when the costume and set designers were trying to come up with Budd and Bill-style looks they were told by QT "Oh, just go and raid their houses for stuff". If you look carefully, Budd is actually wearing two different boots in the Wedding Chapel Masacre, both Madsen's, which try symbolically to point out Budd's conflicting views... an early sign that he's having second thoughts about the assasin business.

????Yeah but you CAN buy a Hattori Hanzo Sword...so you"re telling me they are also fake?? they might be for decorations..but they are nice made,for a memento...like i said,i don't really need a "real" one? So it might be that Bill's Hanzo Sword is also "fake"...but who cares...it's really cool...p's
i own 6 LOTR swords....all of them look just like the movie. YES you could use them to kill someone and yes they can be use to duel and battle with, but they'd get scratched up and the nice finish would be lost.
I don't think the swords in the movies were any of the actors own property. Atleast, maybe not until the movie was done being filmed.

I rest my case 😄
But anyways..if anyone sees one on the web or anywhere else...please notify me..thx🙂
This tells us the fate and creation of Bill's Hanzo Sword: scroll down for David Carradine.
David Carradine has no such wardrobe qualms--in fact, he was clad in Bill's distinctive leather jacket when he sat down with Hollywood.com. "They came and raided my closet," says the actor. "This is me. This is what I was wearing in the movie--this shirt, this jacket, not these pants, but close. They made three more of these jackets for me. I don't even know which one this is. And I took them all home with me.
"Them and the swords," he adds. "I didn't GET to keep them, I just TOOK 'em. I have probably what is the #2 Bill sword. The number one disappeared sometime during the shoot. And I told them, if you had just let me take them home, I'd know where they are. They're in safekeeping with me."
Hmmm so it WAS his katana after all,pretty cool...thx for info Sarah 🙂

No I'm saying that the one's they used on set were obviously fake. But the one's for sale are probably kick ass.
