That was interesting, certainly. Though I have to say the guy with the tie followed through way too much in a way that put him off balance completely. The guy in black was much more controlled.
And for home defense I wouldn't use it either, simply because in my house (like most European houses) there is not enough room to swing a broadsword.
Still, when judged by itself, it's an impressive weapon.
I have actually had a demonstration on the ability of these types of swords. The interesting thing is, if your straight razor was the same sharpness as one of these swords you could not cut a single hair on your body and I doubt seriously that you could break your skin but when you wield this sword it cuts through whatever gets in its way as if it was as sharp as a razor.
EDC?.......
And Ironically, if the sword was as sharp and hard as your razor, the edge would crumble and the blade would chip out badly. :)
"If you're strong enough to wield the great sword, it's an enormous advantage in any fight!"
It may very well be... But I doubt I'll ever be in a fight and have a greatsword on me... I edc two or three good knives... But How will I get a greatsword onto my campus? Hmmm
