my son needs a new sword for his martial arts class. he currently has a Wakisashi and the katana's are too long for him (he's only 10).

i looked at some stuff by Cold Steel and it looks pretty good but it might be a bit more than i'm looking to spend.

anyone know of a decent place for these types of swords?

any recommendations.

Your kids martial arts class uses real swords? Instead of spending the money on one invest in having your head examined.

A $300 sword?! For what? If the sword is actually going to be used in defense and not practice, buy a gun instead.

I have the replica from Kill Bill out in my living room.

I also have Hadhafang.
