Unlike the swords in my earlier weapons post, this is a battle-ready sharpened high-carbon steel blade, a straight blade Japanese style, usually called a "Ninja" sword (I have no idea how accurate that association is). I haven't tested it (for obvious reasons) but I would imagine that this sword could do a lot of damage to the other swords in my collection! Make no mistake, when society crumbles, I will be armed and ready...! (Again, I ask myself why people think I'm "safe"...)
But in these pictures, I am just posing, martial arts movie-style (captions developed just now, on the spur of the moment - the poses were not planned for the comedy factor!):
"If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine!"
"Let the Light of Truth be your sword!"
"And a beautifully-timed pull shot, past midwicket for 4 runs"
"Wake me from my slumber, would you!? In my day, we cut little boys' heads orf for less!"
"Something tells me, this isn't a flute after all..."
"Alien or Predator or what the fuck, I don't care - I'll still chop your goolies** off!"** "Goolies" is slang for testicles. Technically, since the Alien was female it wouldn't have had goolies, but the humour is in the futility of such a threat when faced with a monstrous space creature!
I hate to tell you, but all those books in the background make you look decidedly NOT dangerous! :P
ReplyDeleteAh, but that's what makes me even more dangerous - a warrior in scholar's clothing!
