It's cool and all but I'd much rather have Beatrix Kiddo's Hattori Hanzō Sword from Kill Bill.

Looks cool, but I already have the $80 bootleg. Does it have the ancient scrolls in the hilt? That could make the difference for me.

Ooh! Hadn't thought of that. That would be killer.

Does that mean you can't own them in the UK? Whats up with that... what are the Samurai to use

And this looks pretty cool, not sure if I'm interested enought to bite though. But if the scrolls are included that could push me over the edge. Although I imagine if they were part of the product that would have been mentioned.

I wouldn't pay any money for a cheap knock-off sword. I have a real sword that can used for something other than display. Plus, how can you pay money for something that even in a promo photo, they can't even get the sword displayed properly. Save your money and get a sword from https://www.bugei.com or Cas Iberia, etc.

what part of "prop replica" do you not understand? The whole point of owning this is NOT to own a real sword, but to own a replica of what was seen in the series.

I have real swords too, no big feat there.

Well, the eighty dollar knock-off will be just as usefully or functional if that makes any difference.

I just don't see the point in wasting money on something that is just as useless as a wallhanger. Plus, the sword isn't that cool anyway.

Glad hear that you have something of use.

I don't see the point in owning a car when I can fly anywhere I want. But cars do have its purpose as well as a replica sword has its purpose.

Interesting to see that the sword and cutlery elitists among us have a problem with items like this, though. You learn something new everyday.

This just in: Some of us like the HEROES series (and the significance of this particular sword) and think it would be cool to have a licensed prop replica on display. Just because it's not a "fully functional" sword that we can use to invade some 3rd world country shouldn't make it any less "cool". Why is that so hard to understand?

I was actually looking forward to him showing me where I can get real lightsabers so that I can stop buying all these useless replica lightsabers.

Also, why collect 1/6 inanimate versions of people? Those aren't real, either.
