Then again, I may have misplaced my scalpel, but I still have a decent collection of knives and katana  What kind of Katana do you have? Paul Chen/Hanwei? Cold Steel? Custom? Are they folded steel? Bohi? Sori, blade and tsuka measurements would be appreciated. Do you practice Tameshigiri? |

A Hatori Hanzo
HAHAHAHAHA!!! I've had people try to impress me by showing me their "Hatori Hanzo" licensed Kill Bill, middle of the mall sword sets. Hilarious. Did you know Hatori "the demon" Hanzo was a real life legendary Samurai? |

Tried to see it in any scene pic, but no dice.

You know what? I don't think it actually is on the sword in the movie. I've seen it on some so-called higher end replicas though, so I got confused. The sword Uma uses is an aesthetically modified Paul Chen practical pro with an obviously dull edge. https://www.paulchenhanweiswords.com/practical-pro-katana.aspxYou can tell by the tsuba, tsuka, tsuka ito and sori. It's one of the longer hilts they make, which was necessary due to Uma being 6' 0". |
