this is one of the reasons the katana was such a formidable weapon. did you see how they bent and wobbled like noodles? other lesser swords would either straight up break, or bend, and not bend back. that flexibility was what made them amazing. now, if only they attatched them at a slight angle for the slicing motion instead of chopping motion.

@outandabout259

@@beatles42ohgg94 actually you got that completely backwards. Katanas with their differential hardening have one hard but brittle edge and a soft spine that bends instead of springing back. Many spring steel swords from medieval Europe and other places, on the other hand, can bend pretty much into a C and will spring right back with no plastic deformation. Sure, a katana will not snap like a spring steel sword when bent more than it can handle, but the amount it can bend before plastic deformation is significantly smaller.

I have never been more concerned for your safety than I was today. When those katanas broke loose that was scary!

This is actually due to the frame rate of the camera. When a blade is in the same spot in the circle every time the camera captures a frame, it will look like it's standing still. If it's slightly faster or slower it will look like it's going slow or backwards. This is the same reason it happens multiple times since all the swords look the same, you don't know how many swords you're seeing between frames and it can vary.

Was worried when I saw you attaching the swords with the handles still on , glad no one was hurt , those slowies were awesome

My first thought after seeing the trailer was "Do they even know how katanas are assembled and fixed on their handles?" They were lucky enough that they didn't have any casualties upon firing that thing up.

If I was you guys, I would absolutely not be willing to do this without at least an inch thick wall of steel between me and the swords. I'd also probably lay down on the floor whenever it was active to lower the chance of me being impaled if a sword was flung directly in the direction of the wall. Edit: Also, I definitely would have made the same mistake with the dowels. While I have heard of that before, it would not have occurred to me.
