Scottish Claymore Cutting (Water-filled Bottles)

My first sword, and I'm very much enjoying it.

This is a new video to replace my previous cutting video since I wasn't too happy with it in retrospect. That said I'm still pretty new to backyard cutting. Also I really need to get a proper camera; this digital camera isn't so great.

I really like my Claymore, though I'll definitely be going for something a little more subtle next time.

I'll try and get some tatami omote sometime so I can do some test cutting on more substantial targets at a later date.
I also really need to get a set of whetstones or something, but that can wait for a little while.

In other news, I hope my choice of music wasn't too bad.

how much did the claymore cost you?

[MGlBlaze]

@Graven754 I think it was about £180. It depends on where you live and where you buy them from.

believe me you could do much cooler things with your time if you had a girlfriend

[MGlBlaze]

@RiseOfThePro I debated with myself for a while on whether or not I should bother responding to your comment. I will say this; I had a girlfriend, and I have no desire to repeat those three years. The only thing I really gained from it is learning how many things about relationships are overrated and how they have the potential to ruin you.

Thank you for your 'concern', but I'm content as I am.

i dont think william wallace tied his hair back :)

[MGlBlaze]

@leexlma As far as I can tell from doing some searches, he never didn't have long hair so that's really a given. What are you basing your information on?

[SKThibault]

@RiseOfThePro You can cut water bottles. You can't cut your girlfriend. Nothing is more fun than playing with swords and dangerous objects.

Ah, the Highland tools...:)  WTF...

[TheJoe999Man]

How did you sharpen it and what with?

[ChishioAme]

@SKThibault Oh, you can cut your girlfriend. She just won't like it and then the police tend to show up with guns drawn and you might end up with a bullet hole or two. You CAN do it, it's just not a very good idea.

[lkopbia]

[acclogout]

you can swing with a gf, but that doesn't cut bottles :(
