Alright, let’s talk about this… this “hanzo katana” thing. I ain’t no fancy sword expert, ya hear? I’m just tellin’ ya what I know, or what I heard, like them folks gossiping at the village well.
First off, some say this “hanzo katana” ain’t even a real, proper Japanese sword, like the ones them samurai fellas used way back when. Heard some city folk sayin’ it’s just somethin’ made up, like in them movies. You know, the ones with all the fightin’ and flyin’ around. Sounds kinda fishy to me, if you ask me.
Then there’s this other thing, seems they got these “hanzo katana” knives now, for the kitchen! Can you believe it? They call ‘em “chef knives,” like the ones them fancy restaurant cooks use. They say it’s made of some special steel, “VG-10” they call it, and it’s sharp as all get-out. They even got a video of some fella cuttin’ up chives with it. Chives! Like we ain’t got enough to worry about than fancy ways to cut chives. Waste of good money, if you ask me.
Now, there’s this young fella I know, he’s always fiddlin’ with swords and such. He bought one of these “hanzo katanas” online, from some place called “Katanamart” or somethin’. He was all excited, showin’ it off to everyone. Said it was a “practical katana,” whatever that means. He even made a video of himself swingin’ it around, cuttin’ through nothin’ mostly. Looked like a fool to me, flailing around like a scarecrow in a windstorm. He said somethin’ about “Yari no Hanzo,” too, which sounds like another one of them fancy names. Confusin’ if you ask me.
- Seems like these “hanzo katana” things are all over the place.
- Some say they’re real swords, some say they’re just knives.
- Some say they’re good quality, some say they’re just for show.
I heard some folks in the market talkin’ about buyin’ swords from Europe, tryin’ to dodge them customs folks. Seems like a whole lot of trouble, if you ask me. Why you’d need a sword in the first place is beyond me. Unless you’re plannin’ on fightin’ off wild boars or somethin’. And even then, a good ol’ pitchfork would do the trick just fine.
Then there’s that movie, “Kill Bill,” they say. Got a woman with a “hanzo katana” in it, slicin’ and dicin’ folks left and right. Folks are always tryin’ to find a copy of that sword, a “high quality replica,” they call it. Want it sharp enough to cut things, they say. Seems dangerous to me. Playin’ with sharp things ain’t no good, my grandma used to say.
And now I see another video, some young fella unboxin’ a “Kill Bill Hattori Hanzo’s Katana” from a place called “Mortal Blades”. Folks sure like to spend money on things they don’t need. All this “unboxing” and “cutting tests” on banana trunks, what a waste. They even got folks testin’ if the blade will bend. Like bendin’ is a good thing in a sword. Seems to me a sword should be strong and straight, not all wobbly and bendy.
So, there you have it. That’s all I know about this “hanzo katana” thing. Seems to me it’s a whole lotta fuss about nothin’ much. Some folks like ‘em, some folks don’t. Some are real, some are fake. Some are for fightin’, some are for cookin’. Makes my head spin, all this talk of “VG-10” and “replicas” and whatnot. I’ll stick to my good ol’ kitchen knife, thank you very much. At least I know what it is and what it’s for. Good enough for me.
