    Trademe money hungry, Katana for sale.

    Firstly, I apologize for sorta throwing this in Rant&Rave.
    I don't have any credit on TM, and I'd end up paying about $20 just to list the fucking thing. I am really, really broke.

    I've somewhat had in my possession for nearly 2 years a (from what I know, a high quality/high carbon content) katana.
    Purchased on trademe for around $210-220 off gengswords_nz, sat at home for a week and only cut through a couple water-filled milk containers. Like butter.

    It was then found by mother dear and was taken by my granddad to Taranaki 'till 4 months ago.

    It's very sharp, very strong and from a reliable source.

    Comes with;
    -Case
    -Some cloth bag thing
    -Sharpening stone (White, very fine grit)
    -*Oil and cloths to clean it after use
    -*Excess oil dabber filled with chalk
    -*A cool hammer thing
    -Wooden box to hold the above 3 items*
    -Blade sheathe

    There is a very slight surface rust appearing, but I'm pretty sure it can be removed from a few strokes of the stone.

    Pickup can be Stillwater or Birkdale at request.

    Asking for around $170.


    If there's anything wrong with the placing of this 'advert', please inform before infractions

    Yep - had me wondering at first, had to read it twice before I worked out it was a sword, then I could make sense of it

    I was wondering about how they cut thru some milk containers like butter on their bike - and it just got a bit weird from there on in
    Lifes Just one big ride - buckle up or hang on

    I was wondering about the "high quality/high carbon"

    I cried on the inside, knowing it was destined to be page 2'd.

    C'mon guys, I know shiney things sure do need to be in your possession

    the issue is that to most people on here (if not all) would look at your thread thinking you were selling a Suzuki Katana - as in a bike
    It takes a bit of reading before you mind stops thinking WTF ..... and you realise it's an actual katana sword

    Silly Japs. Why did they go and name their swords after a motorbike!
    The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.

    Well in my defense, I did post this in a 'non-bike related' board.

    Hmpf
