bought it

well -I bought a sword. paid what I thought was a decent price for it. Yes I could have gotten it cheaper on the internet but... I was able to try it out in the tent and all. (and everybody has to make a living right?)

Then I got it home and found a flaw in the blade. A small stress fracture?  right above the balance point.  Just about the same place it would be if someone was swinging it at something.  I'm hoping my dad can buff it out - or help me cover it over. Although granted no one is going to see the flaw when the dang thing is balanced on my head.  I was very pleased with it - until I found the flaw :(   Oh well I can play with it for a year and then see who has what in stock right?

not what I would have picked initially but I have to say... the more I play with it & look at it... the more I'm loving it.

the handel looks like the KOA sword. I like the strong and impossing swords. I'm glad you have one of your own.

It's so... big. :)

I would love to see you dance with it.

*wink*

It's not the size of the ship -but the motion of the ocean...

I'll let you know when I get some video of it.

Nice toy. If you were going to be fighting with it, I'd be more concerned about the fracture.
