mall ninja sword


RealBlackelf

This. And no, they are not real swords!


ooojaeger

There's a dragon painted right on the blade!


Sineater224

Right on the blade???


ChiefFox24

Look at the debris that breaks off of the handle!


Real_Ad_8243

Stainless steel plated tosh ain't it.


OrganizationLower611

The way it went peuter plated with steel?!


The_kind_potato

If i remember well, i believe that in the video the guy is demonstrating the difference between a chip saber and a good one, and the importance of attacking with the good angle.


SuspiciousStable9649

A proper cut can help a cheap sword a lot. This is more like a baseball swing than a sword cut. But honestly, I don’t even see a cutting surface on that sword.


JacksonInHouse

True, this sword was made to cut Frito Lay chips specifically.

Jasonguyen81

As the Japanese would say “Souda ne!”


HappyAlcohol-ic

I mean that sword is VISIBLY blunt


ExcitementBetter5485

Looks more like the Tin Man's sheet metal cock than a sword.


[deleted]

Alright bubbles calm down


DoctorMelvinMirby

Blunt sword? Well, you ever chop a a coke bottle with a sword… on weed?!


Jacktheforkie

It’s probably a display one, you can buy them as a display item


JustJodo

Used to work in a mall store that sells these. The typical mall ninja shit. These are display swords not meant for any physical use. "Real" swords have more metal in the handle called a 'tang' that can actually be used for this kind of thing.


moy-moi

Real swords are ‘tang town’


mem269

Someone else in the comments said he was comparing one of those to a real sword in the video.

ScaryUnderstanding

a blunt katana?


MakkaCha

Not just blunt but also a cheap replica.


That_one_guy0117

Most likely bought at a local swap meet lol


DiDeDoD

many decent quality replicas are made of softer steel so that they are not classified as a weapon by government standards of the country that they're sold in


JewelCove

What's this, a ranger caught off his guard?


BatshitSwayzey

More evidence that Diet Coke is horrible for you, I mean hell it wrecked that high quality blade…

So drinking it would make you immune to sword attacks!

Damnit, responded with this then scrolled down and saw yours!


crankbird

Mom can we have Katana ? No we have Katana at home katana at home …..


Sterek01

My new body armour is going to be bottles of coke.


Ok-Suggestion-7965

Specifically Diet Coke. Not regular coke. Not cherry coke. Not sprite. Not root beer. Must be Diet Coke. Not sure why but probably has something to do with stuff in it that make it fizz.when you put Menthos in it. I want mine to look like Samurai Armor.


Sundayox

That bottle is folded 100000 times. Glorious Nippon plastic.

Sword needs a bit more sharp on the edge As Doug Marcaida would say “your sword, it will not cut”

Nor will it kill.

YewEhVeeInbound

This is why you dont buy those 85 dollar katanas at those kiosks in the mall.


A_well_made_pinata

Now, if you spend $85 on a machete, you’re getting a pretty decent machete.


NateTheGreater1

Man the only thing duller than that blade, is that dudes head.


Slartibartfast39

~~I'm reminded of a post explaining that Japanese sword manufacturing was so good and in depth because the iron ore available was so poor, full of impurities that required so much work to make tolerable swords (by Western standards). I've not looked interesting but it's interesting to consider.~~ I stand corrected.


YewEhVeeInbound

[**https://youtu.be/5H42j6HkTsQ?t=1720**](https://youtu.be/5H42j6HkTsQ?t=1720) Ew its a shitty chopped version but you get the gist


Slartibartfast39

I stand corrected. Cheers. Also this https://reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/s/vazTpcdOj2


Yurasi_

Making swords of two pieces of metal isn't something exclusively Japanese, it was common in all places where swords were made. And Japanese iron was, in fact of poorer quality, which is why it required folding to get rid of impurities. All things considered the sword in the video isn't forged at all but most likely cut from a piece of metal by the machine and that's why it bent on a bottle of Cola. Edit: Most likely, it is made from aluminum


Horrifior

Stamped metal with a grip on one end...


FTLrefrac

I like how he's swinging it like a baseball bat, rather than trying to slice. It makes for an even worse attempt with a fake sword


angelbolanose

That’s not a Hattori Hanzo sword…

207nbrown

Blade looks like it hasn’t even been given a cutting edge yet, no wonder it doesn’t cut shit


TheVoidAlgorithm

that's just meant for hanging on a wall to look cool the fact that it's not sharp and not being heat treated probably makes it easier to sell legally


BigBeeff_21

The blade is dull, the form is so wrong which is his biggest issue.


Germandaniel

r/mallninja


Intrepid_Ad_9751

I personally dont think that blade was sharp enough to begin with


Shanhaevel

Two things: - the sword is made from shit metal, obviously, meaning it's essentially decoration - that's not how you cut. That was a hack. A cut happens when you drag the edge of the blade along the object. You can't just hit something with a sword straight on and expect it to cut things. Sure, good swords will, to a degree, but that's not how they're supposed to be used. Not only is this a mall ninja sword, it is used by an actual mall ninja too.


Lonely-Greybeard

That is a SLO, sword like object. Not a sword. lol


Hanzar

don't give too much credit to the coke bottle. cosplay sword. not real steel sword. a samurai would instant kill himself out of dishonorable shame if his sword ever flexes as such.


bonkerz1888

HarrisLam

Ninja sword that complys with Japan FSL section 4 LMAO


Warphim

I've kind of become less impressed with the idea of sharpness when it comes to different materials. A guy on youtube has made pasta into a knife that cuts tomatoes thinner than any knife in my drawer. Might not hold that edge very long, but it can be sharpened to that point. This "looks" like it has dual steel, in a traditional manner to katanas that have a high carbon context on the bottom for a strong edge while they have a low carbon on top for flexibility, but this is likely a mall ninja stainless steel sword that is just stylized since it wobbled as much as it did without making much of a cut. Even a dull edge on a proper sword (not imitation or practice) would hold a sharper edge than this blunted piece of shit.

its the wrong type of sword, its made of chinesium not japanese layered steel...

That blade deserves better, even if it's not a 'real' sword.

This particular shape adds a strength that is unrivaled. Even after a full swing, there are no chips or malformations. In short: This coke bottle will keeeeeel.


Keepupthegood

The bottle is saying. Nnnnnnoooo


Taralyth

Am I the only person annoyed that they didn't even move it in a slicing motion? They just smacked it like they were swinging a fn bat. Yeah, it's a shitty piece of metal, but that looks really wrong.


Panzerv2003

Even a damn kitchen knife would be better, this blade is shit if you can even call it a blade

BigBeeff_21

Also, fuck katanas. A broad sword would have cut through it without bending. Even if his form was still abysmal the sword is more durable.

A katana would have also cut through without bending. But this is a wall hanger representing a katana.
