Re: Help buying Katana
Chris, even the most accomplished sword practitioners have accidents. There is a very famous video of a senior Japanese devotee, who, during an exhibition, cleanly sliced off his entire thumb while drawing his katana. The video captures the severed digit flying across the stage in a majestic arc. What people are trying to tell you is that your chances to avoid such a mishap would improve if you were less cavalier in your approach to training with a live weapon. It's nothing for you to get upset about, it's just a fact.
