Many Experts agree that the Katana is the finest cutting blade second only to a modern scalpel. Although this clip is biased towards the Katana's abilities, it does ...
+Shrekas 2 Something tells me you will always keep crawling back to me. Ironically enough calling someone retarded over a sword and suit of armor is in itself retarded. You knew that right? That and you think everything in Europe is number one when multiple tests have proven it to be subpar. Again, your problem not mine. Cheers mate. ;)
+Shrekas 2 That's not what the test showed us. In theory it sounds cute and full of potential but when put to the test...not really. Action speaks louder than words in battle.cBut then again, Europeans always thought they were number one in theory.
+Shrekas 2 Smaller ringers mean it's harder to get the point through I know that, the Japanese knew it too as well as those Indo-Arbs you mentioned. You can't really call them stupid for that. Given the type of swords used against armor in Europe you just can't make that claim so boldly. The vague sharpness on those Euro swords turned out to not only be subpar but over all worthless if you are just going to thrust with the damn thing. The versatility both the samurai sword and armor offers just doesn't allow people to easily say that the European armor and swords were better and more effective in battle. Again, you grow fatigue very quickly which is why knights were more often horse fighters. Ever wonder where the word "chivalry" comes from?
+Shrekas 2 Yeah I've seen them before, too much time wasted not to expose any holes, not exactly designed to help that much in battle. Really the same issue as the nun chucks and axes. All that metal around you will eventually weigh you down. I've even seen a legit knight fight against an unarmored guy demonstrating halfswording techniques, his friend in armor grew tired quickly. That European chainmail just doesn't complement the body the body well hence why they preferred plate. Nothing that impressive really.
+Shrekas 2 Cutting easier IS cutting better. "Buzzsaws aren't better than axes at chopping down trees, it's just easier." Plus it retained its edge unlike European swords which were only good for thrusting, as long as they didn't miss or get crammed in shorter ranges. About chain mail in Japan: The Japanese used many different weave methods including: a square 4-in-1 pattern (so gusari), a hexagonal 6-in-1 pattern (hana gusari) and a European 4-in-1 (nanban gusari), the kusari links could be doubled up and some examples were tripled in a possible attempt to make the kusari bullet resistant. The links were lacquered black to prevent rusting, and were always stitched onto a backing of cloth or leather. The kusari was sometimes concealed entirely between layers of cloth. Their chainmail was actually better than that of Europeans. Why do you think the Knights started using full plate armor on top of it?
+Shrekas 2 So it is a shitty sword after all. Best balanced sword the world? Hmmm probably because of its weak thin blade that sucked for cutting while curved swords like the katana could do both pretty well even thrusting through chainmail back when the samurai actually started using it. Saying the longsword is better because it's a tedious one-trick pony that requires time to master its one real advantage is a weak sauce argument. That would be like me saying nunchucks are better than baseball bats.
+Shrekas 2 Oh yeah the guy that bashed katanas using cheap replicas. Good times. ;) Since you yourself believe there is no such thing as a perfect sword answer me this: why is YOUR favorite Euro sword NOT the perfect sword anymore than all the other swords.
+XxGR3YW01FxX I dont need to prove anything to you. You are beyond repair. Proving something to weeaboo nyger isnt possible i guess. Tell me what you want to be proved and i will.
+Shrekas 2 See what I mean? There is so much irony in your repetitive insults. If you want to prove the Euro swords are better (which you can't), this was not the way. Got anything else?
+XxGR3YW01FxX Thats why you do it as sore loser. I know man autism is a hell of disorder but trust me man you can live with it. I beleave you man. Dont let your dreams be dreams. Be a first autist to have masterful katana collection.
+Shrekas 2 Someone is me? What? Glad you were insecure enough to check out my body count. Sore losers are as sore losers do. I guess you, again, conveniently left out al, those other comments posted days and weeks before where the Euro fanboys where crying about their sword not being number one. Oops. Are you going to run away...again? *yawn
+XxGR3YW01FxX And someone is you boy. Literaly on every video where other sword than katana is better by proof and facts you cry about europeans : who are you? nyger slave? hahaha common thing in america.
+XxGR3YW01FxX I just found you crying about truth in every katana vs longsword debunking video. Or any sword vs katana actualy. What a fkin weeb :D busted!
+Shrekas 2 If anything you just proved to me that you are indeed and insecure sore loser in that is so worried about a god damn sword not being as good or popular as another sword. Oh well.
+Domiedave99 The one where you called me a "weaboo"? Don't even know what that is, but I assume it was a sad attempt at an insult. That's your butthurt little basis and you expect me to take you seriously? Get outa' here. Enjoy your puny Euro fanboy coterie on the internet little fellow. ; )
+Domiedave99 Like you believe everything European is number one and get insecure whenever a documentary dares to "unfairly" test it? Oh come on. You couldn't make it anymore obvious.
+XxGR3YW01FxXMate you can believe in anything you like:-) You can believe in the flying spaghetti monster if you want.?But it doesn't make it right though!
+Domiedave99 Excuses, excuses backed by too much rage and not enough reason. You mean to tell me that those featured guests in those Japanese documentaries were uneducated actors that didn't have a highly-regarded level of education, better and more than the bashers with little YouTube channels, on the subject matter to even be recognized by the TV networks? Yeah right. Oh the stench of envy and denial.
+XxGR3YW01FxXWell when they can't even get the name of the sword right or how to wield the thing properly in the first place then yes they have no education and uneducated gullible folks such as yourself get suckered in. Maybe if they got someone who knew something about medieval combat treatises and knew you don't swing an "armingsword" like a fucking baseball bat with two hands l may take this type of shit a bit more seriously !
+Domiedave99 Your logic is simply this: anyone who finds Japanese swords and warriors to better than Europeans' = media bias with no education. Any one that thinks European swords and warriors are better = educated unbiased scholars on a crusade to bash and insult those who disagree and later pass it on as giving them an "education". Yeah...I'm not buying it. Looks to me you Euro fanboys are jealous after all. Why else would you be so insecure about this crap? Cheers mate. ;)
+XxGR3YW01FxX You again! must be a weabo ? Anyway there is no longsword depicted in this video. come to think about it there isn't any broadsword either.

Highlander Connor McLeod vs Iman Fasil Toledo Salamanca End
this is fucked up because the toledo sword is Greek and Iman is a mu slims
name and theres no way a Muslim would use a Greek sword ,,, big goof up
here folks
"Born Gaultier de Savoie, French knight, Fasil was a firm believer in the Christian God and was among the leaders of the third Holy Crusade against the Infidels who allegedly held Jerusalem prisoner. He constantly preached to his men that they were God's right hand, warriors of righteousness. However, his faith faltered when he was taken prisoner by the Muslims and came in contact with the Arab culture and civilisation. He was taken to Damascus as a slave, and there, after learning not only Arab but Persia as well as reading the Koran, Gaultier found there were many ways to love God and discovered his love for Allah. And maybe falling for one of the Sultan's handmaidens helped too."- Highlander Wiki
+MidnightLost01 NO THATS NOT WHAT I SAID AT ALL IS IT ? please dont put words in my mouth ,, let me ask you do you know any thing about history ? ,, it would be like a jew using a nazi death camp dagger , it wouldnt happen , i also did not write any thing about a katana or ramirezs sword , i was talking about imam Fasils sword ,,, and he would be muslim ,, here ill explain for you the greeks and muslims fought for decades and had a strong hatered for each other as well when ever you see the word abd , or imam , that would be muslim and by that vertue alone would make that an impure sword for a muslim ,,, think
So your saying an immortal who has been alive for centuries in no possible way, could of made his way to Greece and perhaps pick up a new sword?The katana wasn't Conner's original sword, he got it from Sean Connery's character (forgot his name).
