I hear that - I dig the zilla, but that's a whole lot of money for a blade that's so thick and so heavy that it's not very usable in real world situations.

The waki is a ridiculous sword, but it's actually pretty functional. It's light and easy to swing, and can do a lot of jobs that a machete would do, while being WAY cooler.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if my zilla ends up on the exchange in half a year. 800 bucks buys a lot of SR-101.
