I missed the other Scrap Yard sword on purpose. It was too long. I totally sold the Swamp Rest Rukis I had. This looks like something I can get behind and use!

--menacing rope

--threatening water jugs

-- aggressive 2x6es

All those need punishment. But seriously. Having a 15" sword like that would be an ideal "strap-to-the-pack, TEOTWAWKI, Walking Dead blade." Perfect for close quarters combat when shooting is too noisy, or you run out of ammo. Also works as an indestructible machete/chopping machine. It could probably dress, skin, and butcher a deer in a pinch...or a moose, or maybe a sasquatch. Deep hollow grind would also make it work for food prep.
