Ugug, where did you hear about the Katana ban??? That really is Tony's finest hour.. NOT! Jeez our government has lost it totally.
Back on thread- good links thanks for sharing, I prefer Dan's prices to the Angel forge! hey Paul there were reports int he Daily Telegraph .. i understand that the legisaltion is ready to go in Scotland.. supposedly the only people who wil be exemmpt are members of the Brisith Kendo Association and high end collectors of the To-Ken society i'd normally dismiss reports in the papers but this seems like it is a goer.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> ... allso you might want to look at he law section of another, britsh based forum, which has a long thread with lawyers contributing the worst thing is that i think the chinese swords i practice MA with will also become illegal weapons <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" /> cheers ug All joking aside I'm very sorry to hear that. I'm not that familure with your system I visited there once on a short business trip, do you have any activist groups trying to block it? Bors

I can see the point of banning cheap swords.. But who'd pay good money for a weapon to use illegally- then have to dispose of? Crims use Stanley knives and kitchen knives not Busse Combat, same applies to swords imho!
Sorry to hear your practice swords may get taken, dumb dumb dumb..

rvogster, agreed, i was really surprised to see the #'s compared to A2 & D2 tool steels!
i mean i saw some knife the other day with "A2 Tool Steel" all written in large obnoxious font across the Entire blade.. i mean decent steel sure.. but talk about Tacky!
whereas Dan's blades.. nothing but coating and sharp edge.. all function.. none of that slick sales pitch crap..

hey
sorry to hijack a good htread about sr77 .. just a final point . if you already posess a sword you can keep it ... if & when any laws come into effect they will only stop us buying/trading/making those swords... same as with autos or push daggers & asp batons etc
cheers and come on Dan, make us Brits a katana whilst we can still legally buy one ..

Well, so far SR77 is 4 and 0. Myself, my father(Mechanic ~35 years), mechanic in town (~35 years) and a welder in town (~35 years). None of us could believe what SYK has wrung out of the SR77.
The actual comments when I told them the claims were all along the lines of "If you get the knive to bend, wear safety glasses and watch out for shrapnel! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I hope Dan stickies the testing thread and all future testing threads like it. That thread really tells the "why Scrapyard Knives" (and the DF in particular) story in a credible manner and without hyperbole.
