So thats why the japanese didnt win the war.

I thought the second half of the vid would be a complete was of time... but watching those bullets get cut in half was pretty cool.

A bit excessive on the replays, no?

Whoa, I would never have believed that a blade could take more than two bullets at most. That's impressive.

Raverzel: You realize that each of those seven replays is a different bullet right? The sword split or shattered seven bullets before it broke. Fairly impressive.

The Japanese Katana is known for its amazing stregnth, light weight and sharp blade.

I imagine if the shots weren't all concentrated in one place then it could have survived even more. Very impressive from a thin piece of metal.

in WWII Japeneese Officers carried these Katanas and made a charge only known as "Banzai" at the enemy. thats how a young man manning a 30 cal.(unfortualatly was killed) killed over 300 Japeneese in a single nite.(in fact he killed a two thirds of those enemys after he was killed by a grenade. aparantly his finger was "frozen" on the trigger) i diddnt give u the entire documentary(too long)and cant think where to find the video. it was absolutly amazing. the blade is made and crafted to its highest extent in metals and crafting. i wonder if its possible to "parry" the bullets by "re-directing them". oh well.

Damn - my first accidental down-vote, sorry!
