Fat larper who had a steampunk wedding and chimps out about "functionality" while being obsessed with outdated weapons.

Don't get me wrong, I like swords too, but he is a typical "haha, the katana is inferior to western swords because of functionality; now I'm going to cream myself over the wester katan... i mean gross messer >;^)"


The only things swords are good for are sparing and cutting shit for fun in your back yard, even dressing up for fun is fine.
This historical recreation shit is cringe AF though

He's a loser faggot but he's cool inside of that category, at least he doesn't disrespect people

He doesn't claim to be an expert and he does pretty good and concise reviews. He's entertaining (mostly) and does no harm provided you take what he says with a pinch of salt and realize that it's just his opinion. Also, he vaguely reminds me of that one guy from the video game Mercenaries, so that's a plus too.

Boohoo other people don't think the katana is magic.

Correct on more things than Lindybeige but way less entertaining.

Matt Easton is superior to both though.

Amazing butthurt surrounding the sword, maybe it has to do with the Irish being masters of sword making from 1500BC?

I know /k/ might sperg about this, but they're leagues better than a baseball bat for home defense for sure.
