Katana 101 Part 3

Well these are not katanas but I label it cause katana means sword in japanese so lets just leave it that way.

This one I have problems with. I have no idea from which anime it is and I'm not even sure if this is a sword to begin with. So I need your help to identify this sword.


I'll put it on my table so you can see it clearly.


Doesnt look like a sword huh?


Now the next one is Reneissance Europe favourite weapon, the rapier.


En Guard!

Well its not from Europe but made here in our beloved country Brunei. It's a letter opener. I bought it from a souvenir shop.



Now a group photo of all my mini katanas/swords.

Wonder what will I get next for my collection.


Next collection... Should it be 1:1 katana or tinier katanas. Lets just wait and see.

Katana 101 Part 2

Now for my next collection in line is Bleach Kurasaki Ichigo's zanpakuto, Zangetsu.

Quite a nice box ain't it. Lets see whats inside.

Its a steel Zangetsu.

It's quite heavy. Too bad the cloth is steel too. If it was real cloth it would be super awesome.

Looks like it was made for the Jump festival in 2005. Lucky me to have it without have to go there :)

I'm not sure about the length so lets measure it.

Total length about 21cm.

Katana 101 Part 1

Sorry for my long silence from updating my blog. Now Im back and lets get down to business. Im gonna share you one of my greatest passion, Katana collecting. I just love em and who dosent?

1st Im gonna show you my prized mini letter opener katana. It was created to imitate the real 1:1 size katana

This is it. The cover is made from wood, the handle is wrapped by nylon and the blade is from stainless steel.

Even the collar was made in detailed.

The only down side of the mini katana was the length was far shorter than the cover.

As you can see the blade was even polish and given the impression as it was as sharp as the real ones.

As you can see the size of the katana is similar to a gundam 1/100 size weapon.


Well thats for now. Stay tune for more ^^
