Anonymous Coward User ID: 26254870 United States 12/11/2012 02:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My sword arrived today! 12-12-12! Awesome weapon. Highly pleased with the quality! Hi Doomers! Here is the update on my sword purchase. Last week I purchased a Japanese Wakizashi to add to my prep gear, and perhaps quite UN-coincidentally it arrived on 12-12-12! How COOL is that?! Here's the sword I purchased: [ link to www.handmadesword.com] Just for fun I created this thread asking for some help in naming this incredible blade. I guess it was more just a bit of a brag to let you guys know that the girls here can kick some ass too! Anyway I tentatively chose "Kamatachi", or Spirit of the Wind for the name of my sword. So, today I waited with anticipation all day, until about 3pm when it finally arrived. For those of you psychically attuned, just holding the box gave off an amazing energy. Perhaps it was just me, but I took the sign seriously, and I cleared the the room and the box with sage and ceder. Then facing East, I sat with the box on the coffee table in front of me and opened it. I was VERY pleased with the packaging and care shown to the sword. The blade itself was well oiled and wrapped in cellophane inside the saya (scabbard). Although not razor sharp (paper tested), I wouldn't want to touch it. I'm very happy this afternoon. It's quite the yule gift to myself. A big step-up for this old lady, back into the martial arts, which was a big part of my teens and twenties. My sister and I studied Kung Fu way back when it was all the rage, and I also studied Iaido later with my husband. [ link to en.wikipedia.org] Anyway, buying the sword is just the incentive I needed to get back into shape, and to regain that flow of spiritual energy of the martial arts. I'll be joining a local Aikido school in January to broaden my skills ... and to center myself in this chaotic world. Thanks GLP'ers. Blessings on this 12-12-12 awakening! |

Plan on using that sword while "bugging out"?
Well, you would be in great company as there is a world wide BEHEADING movement sweeping the globe. Perhaps you can join the other sword waving peace makers. Mexico is currently hiring.
As for your sword the best most accurate name would be ...akaiittou- red blade, as there would be no other color visible on such a blade after it's use.

I just received mine in the mail last week and here is a picture of mine.... [ link to www.strongblade.com] I had "Si Vis Pacem Parabellum" engraved on mine.

Bob. You can't go wrong there. How many other swords would be named Bob? So, you wouldn't have to worry about that. Nothing worse than a room full of swords and they all have the same name. “Expectations are the root of all heartache”
