  • @deaddragon1 The one I saw was around $4000, so it must have been crafted outside of Japan or may not have been as high-quality.

  • @TMF58 they cost more than that believe me :) the  real good ones like this cost more than 9.000€ ;P

  • Wonderful dedication. Thanks for uploading!

  • "Who was it who forged the first blade, of rugged steel his savage soul was made!"

  • hats off to japanese craftsmen! :)

  • Master Kihara does not need tea!!!!

  • I wish I had $4000 to spend on one of these.

  • @ronnysoeberg Yeah lol :D

  • Adam Savage is in a really hack'n'slashy mood today, isn't he?
