You better believe that swords and knives will be the norm of those that will become aggressors and those that defend against them. Wise up. Yeah, I can be irritating at times. But it's only because I tell it like it is. Get over it. |
| samanthasunflower User ID: 29507233 United States12/11/2012 11:13 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm partial to the name Bob. Good luck with your new toy. Swords can actually be very useful. They can be used as a machete to cut through brush, as a very big knife, to make oneself feel cool, and for self protection. Take some good sword wielding classes to go along with it. |

Lol. Oh my. Bless your heart.  I'm glad I played with GI Joes! I got all the boys in my neighborhood to run around in our underwear pretending to be he-man. There was one boy, he was a big 8 year old, and the only one they could play my tiger to ride... one day i went over to his house and his mom say he couldn't play with me anymore.. bitch took him away from me.. i found out he just couldn't play with me anymore cause I played "weird"... |

Neither would Gomez. Machete names if you ask me. The twelve triple tri-quest sub-symetrical bi-polar urban burp syrup gathering device. That or Jim |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28284536 United States12/11/2012 11:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hi Doomers! Quoting: DoomWitch Last week I purchased a Japanese Wakizashi to add to my prep gear, and perhaps quite UN-coincidentally it arrives on 12-12-12! How COOL is that?! Here's my sword: [link to www.handmadesword.com] Anyway, I'm asking for some help in naming this incredible blade, as was the tradition in ancient Japan. I'd like to perhaps keep it aligned with one of my animal totems, (Mountain Lion or Hawk/falcon), but I'm also open to other suggestions. With a little Googling these were some historical names: Sword name/Nicknames: Matsukaze-wind of the pines tetsuyama- iron mountain yamaarashi- mountain storm bushikatagi- samurai spirit akaiittou- red blade inazuma- lightning strike ikazuchi- thunder kin no tora- golden tiger kurou no tatsu- dark dragon yorukaze- nightwind yoarashi- night storm hiryuu- flying dragon amagumo- raincloud kumorigachi- broken cloud makaze - evil wind takame-hawk eye shingi to giri- loyalty and honor *to link two objects together, i.e. you want to name your name to link the two with "to" which means "and" in japanese. So tiger and dragon would be "tora to tatsu" By the way, yes, I'm an old martial artist, and I studied Iaido along the the path (although long ago). [link to en.wikipedia.org] Buying the sword is just the incentive I needed to get back into the flow of it, and I'll be joining a local Aikido school in January.  Lol, don't name it shingi to girl. That sound like the Spanish version of Chinguito which is diminutive for fucking. Add the girl part and you make a sentence  |
