| May 18, 2015 at 10:44 | comment | added | Fhnuzoag | www-materials.eng.cam.ac.uk/mpsite/interactive_charts/… If we're making a modern sword, we'd probably still use steel. We can go for a harder material that can hold an edge better, but we'd sacrifice toughness and run the risk of the edge shattering. | |
| May 18, 2015 at 10:34 | comment | added | Fhnuzoag | @Oak What modern material are you thinking of? If you are using a modern material, anyway, there is no point making it a katana. | |
| May 18, 2015 at 10:27 | comment | added | Docteur | A hidden blade is probably more risky than anything. Bashing with the shield should be followed by stepping back and attacking with a proper weapon. | |
| May 17, 2015 at 18:06 | comment | added | Oak | @Fhnuzoag You are correct, the ancient weapons were slightly blunted to make them stronger. However you disregarded something. I mentioned that the blades and protection would've been crafted out of a modern material which is both lighter AND stronger than steel, thus making them way more reliable | |
| May 17, 2015 at 11:03 | comment | added | Fhnuzoag | Katanas are actually no lighter than western swords. Sharpness is not an asset for long term use - sharp means there is less material on the edge, so the blade is fragile. Military weapons were actually very slightly blunted. | |

They are shell-less, electrically fired guns that you could put up to 4 rounds per barrel (assuming you had the length to do so) and fire them one at a time or all at once. | |
