I was watching a movie last night, that had a lot of sword-play. I started wondering, if you really were in a battle and used a sword, is there a sword made today that would be strong enough not to break?
These guys were whacking the heck out of each other. It seemed to me, in real life, that most swords would break under that kind of treatment. They were cutting heads off, chopping repeatedly against shealds, against other swords, against other steel items, etc.
Not considering some kind of sword games, such as fencing, etc., are there any swords available that could dish out that kind of mayhem? (I'm not talking about something like a $2000 one-of-a-kind sword - I'm talking about something more reasonably priced.)
Thanks,
Steve
