Well now you're just being silly. Katana were fine weapons for the conditions of feudal Japan. Only samurai had katana, they wore a very specific style of armor, battle was very deeply formalized by the honor codes of Bushido, and most duels between samurai ended with a single blow anyway.

o, hehe 😛

As seen in die another day.

He shouldn't worry about falling off a roller coaster because that dude looks round enough to bounce when he hits the ground.

I have the blade of the first fencing foil I broke. Ironically enough it was while dueling my teacher. I thrust hard enough to literally bend the blade back on itself when I connected and snapped off the last 4 inches at the tip.

I've broken two more since then. 😊

A person once threatened me with a sword. First I hid it, then I went to go beat him up. We haven't spoken to eachother since then.

...right. Totally believable story.

How'd you take the sword to hide it? What kind of sword was it?

Considering my mental image of you, how did you beat someone up?

Well the dude threatened to chop me up and he went back on his computer. While he was on there, I took his sword and tossed it on the roof. If you must know, his sword was also a katana (how many friggin people own these for god sakes?).

Mental image?

I whooped him by simply punching and kicking. There's a reason he has a sword. He sucks at hand to hand.

I have no idea why you're asking this but I'll answer. No I don't have brown eyes.

Oh. Well, I was wondering because that story is so full of crap it's ridiculous.

AKA - no way I'm buying that...

Just hazarding a guess, that probably wasn't an actual threat. In which case taking his sword like that was an incredibly childish thing to do.

Also I find your lack of veracity disturbing.

Actually part of his threat was not only saying he'll chop me to pieces but he aimed the sword at me. I don't care if he was kidding around, he knew what was coming.
