for once something showing a real way to examinate a japanese sword, way to not hurt yourself (duh i cut my fingers) or damage the sword (fingers on the blade, poorly fixed blade in the tsuka, and any problem that can happen with old japanese swords)

If Katanas are such great swords how come the japanese got their ass kicked in history everytime they met europeans with sabers? >:P Cavalery sabers were used in all Europe, US , Russia , Otoman Empire,Arab countrys etc etc etc even in last century. The Saber was the real deal, katanas are just overrated.

@Magician12345 The peg ( Mekugi as it is called ) is actually there for safty, it doesn't need to be on the sword as the handle will hold for itself, Some Katana have 2 some only one Mekugi peg. cheap knockoff Katana has a handle normaly glued to the tang and maybe a fake Mekugi pin in it.

Bowing , is probably the feature of Japanese etiquette that is best-known outside Japan. Bowing is considered extremely important in Japan, so much so that, although children normally begin learning how to bow from a very young age, companies commonly provide training to their employees in how to execute bows correctly.

so its just a little bamboo peg that keeps the blade in the handle?
