OK, if I don't back out because of the money (Yes I am cheap at times, and I volley back and forth when it comes time to get ME something). With Patty It doesn't really matter. She knows if something is to much for us to get and she won't even try.

This Ko-Katana because I like the looks of it better than the other one. Yes, it's "Flashier"

And This Tanto. Same reason, I like the way it looks.
Ronin Katana Tanto #2

BUT as Ray pointed out, the Cheness 9260 steel Tenchi Ko-katana is a hundred bucks cheaper, so... But I do actually like the blade and Tsuka on it better and also the Tsuba. I WOULD order their Tanto, but it's $170.00! Whereas the Ronan Tanto is only $65. Guess I could get the Cheness KO and the Tanto from Ronin.

The steel in both the Ronin blades is 1060, and the steel in both Cheness blades is 9260, but I am not worried about either one failing on me as I don't actually expect to ever use them for anything but decorations, BUT they would be capable of being used. Decisions decisions.
