If you wish to use two hands on a sword, why do you want a short, sissy blade like a ko-katana? You should get an O-katana.

Randy I think Ray called you a sissy.
Just because he wears fairy wings .... doesn’t make him a sissy .... I guess ...

Alright you two, you COULD be banned for disrespectful behavior to one of your great and powerful mods you know. But because I am such a nice forgiving person I'll let it slide, this time.  I had thought about a full size Katana, but IF I did ever use it I think that the shorter length would be a bit faster and enable faster recovery from missed cuts/jabs. And overall I just think a shorter sword would be more maneuverable for someone who has never studied any of the Sword arts.

From what I have read, an O-Katana would allow you to reach out there and touch someone. What are they, a 33 inch blade?

My Cold Steel O-Katana has a 36" blade, and I believe my Chisa Katana has a 30" blade.

I am just wanting one a bit smaller for ease of carry/use and less space to display. I am wanting to get a 9 inch bladed Tanto as well https://roninkatana.com/dojo-pro-1060-steel-tanto-2/I really like the "Decorations" on the Tsuka

Thank You MR. Dan! (please note this sounds like a line from a certain block buster movie), well sorta. Anyway, thanks Dan for all you promise to bring to us loyal slobbering starving Dogs. We need Bones, lots and lots of bones. Oh and To quote Kurt Russell in "The Christmas Chronicles" (With just a slight change of ONE word) "The Yard Must Endure". OK, even if you don't really like Christmas Movies (and specially if ya got kids) you MUST watch that movie. It's not your typical Christmas movie. Just go to Netflix and search for it. It IS worth watching for ALL ages, trust me I'm a Mod.
