Hello Dude,

These Swords were known to cut a rock in half without losing its edge and the next moment go completely through a man’s body with a one armed swipe of the blade. If that doesn’t make you run back home then you have other issues than need to be addressed. Sometimes fear is a good thing. Thanks for sharing it......
