Katana Practice
what can I practice a katana on without damaging it?
its kind of cheap but it is a hand forged full tang I don’t wanna dishonor it too much either
its kind of cheap but it is a hand forged full tang I don’t wanna dishonor it too much either
Ive used a wooden dia jo before and I have a kendo stick
1- get some training.
2- if it is cheap, then chances are it is not “hand forged” and you were lied to, I would get your $40 or $100 back from swordsonline.com or whatever place that sells stainless steel crap you ordered it from. A real cutting blade katana will run you at the very least $800. If you know what to look for and can judge quality you might find a cheaper buy somewhere but 99.9% of the time you will just get ripped off and lied to if you don’t know what you are looking for.
If you don’t know how or what you should use for cutting practice, you don’t know what you are looking for.
If you don’t know the significance of a tang in a katana and instead post and harp on advertising puffery, you don’t know what you are looking for.
If you are worried about “dishonoring” a sword, you don’t know what you are looking for. Today bieng a holiday, I won’t insult you on this foolish statement, however I would strongly advise you to not repeat it in the future to anyone that knows anything about swordsmanship and actual swords and quality if you want to be taken seriously.
I suggest 1, buy a real sword, a wallhanger that likely wasn’t heat treated will cause at best unpredictable results, and at worst end up shattering with highly amusing results like our favorite home shopping show host learned about fake katanas.
2- get some lessons.
3- get some tatami cutting mats and either build your own (not hard) or buy a stand (waste of money). Do not think you can chop down a tree with it, flesh is softer than trees, use an ax.
