SwordGuyJoe Posted March 25, 2014 Report Posted March 25, 2014 Very nice article. After I read it, I also read the comments below and found this: Also if I'm correct, if a katana or any blade bought by a samurai broke while in combat, if that samurai survived the fight, he returned and killed the sword smith. That's not correct, is it? Quote
