@NecronLord84 It's simply a demonstration of the ability to cut through leather and meat (similar to the free hanging "meat-sleeve" test). Plus it looks cool :)
@LivingShadow001 He also cuts through nylon rope that is thicker than my leg (and is so strong that it is used to moor ships to the dock!!) with a single cut :)
@csknives Yes I know... I own cold steel products and they are great don't get me wrong. But tell me honestly, how many times was the sword resharpened? Or how many differtent swords were used?
@usmc11able We release more products every year than many of our competitors combined (including lots of folding knives + fixed blades!). Our audience ranges from the Military / LEO to Martial Artists, Outdoorsmen to folks who just collect swords and knives for the love of it. We are an international company with millions of fans and customers all over the world Just because it's something you wouldn't purchase don't dismiss a product as a "toy".
@NishikoRyuu pigs are pretty much as close as you can get to human flesh, so the test will be a accurate representation of what the sword can do to a real human.
Look its cool and shit but you got a fat guy slaughtering pigs? its just not right... what do you do with the pigs afterwards anyway? i think i may have a slight idea.
Have you ever tested the Chinese Tang Dao or Tang Sword, ancestor of Japanese Katana? They were the most advanced sword one thousand years ago. I really want to see that. Thanks!
@csknives Until I am in possession of a "Chinese war Sword", I am afraid the video evidence to substantiate my claim of the effect of an authentic, Japanese steel Katana on the former, will be somewhat delayed.
@iancrawford8 I assume you're talking about the part at 3:05. They're showing you that the sword is so sharp that the ball isn't even able to roll and deflect the blow.
This sword's theme song, written in WW2 to praise how effective it was in CQB, even against the legendary Japanese katanas. It just tears the katanas along with the heads of the Japs right off.
Awesome. If one day, I have to somehow defend myself against a samurai with a katana, I would pick the Chinese dai-dao, every single time. It's the bladed equivalent of an AK-47.
Chinese Dai-Dao, because not everybody are willing to spend 7 years of their life to train in fancy schmancy kung fu/bushido techniques.
Forget the katana, forget the long sword, forget the rapier, forget the gin. This, aside from the spear, halbeard, Chinese ge, and Chinese ji, is a weapon any able bodied person can use effectively on the ancient battlefield with only basic training.
@Cifyra Ancient battlefield? the chinese armies used this saber up until the end of WWII, there is even a song about it, though I do not know the exact name. it was used in hand to hand combat against the japanese.
also, the proper name is a dao, which is roughly translated into sabre.
my grandfather fought in that war and he said his dadao saved his life more than a couple of times
@CrypticWatcher yea, there's quite a few black and white pictures with soldiers carrying these into battle. I heard about these being use to execute a few Japanese soldiers.
what you want to do with this sword? you don't life in the Ming dynasty. you can't go and cut off the head of your neighbor doughter if she's plays in the backyard. and for the kitchen is it a little bit to unhandy
Does anyone else think it's funny that they are blatantly advertising that you can hurt people with this? why else would you put meat in a boot and a jean jacket then cut it in half?? only in america!! haha
