About the Tenchi Ko Katana Review

by Carter Revell
(Weyers cave, Va, U,S,A)

The Tenchi Ko Katana is that short because the ko katanas are mainly used in karate type dojos.

It allows for a faster draw and easier handling by karate students this why this sword is alot shorter than a normal katana.

Hey Carter, this is Grayson C., the author of that review.

I made no secret in that review that I am not all that into katanas as much as I am european sword (I absolutely love ths single handed arming sword). That said, the typical european sword has a blade FAR longer than any typical katana, even the single handed ones. That means that II find katanas short already and as such, a ko katana, which is in my mind a shoterned version of something that is too short for my tastes, just feels strange in my hands.

That said, I'm not criticising the design, I'm merely commenting on the fact that it is not like anything I am used to.

Thanks for the interest I had a LOT of fun writing that revieiw :)
