Sounds like a classic case of mistakenly sticking your dick in crazy, lady looks like a 7/10 at best though for her age. Shitty cheap swords aren't sharpened nicely so it was probably an expensive good sword. Guess I gotta hide my swords from my next gf.

I also think that senator perhaps beat her in self-defense if she was crazy enough to attack her new fiance, she must have been abusive to Monserratte.

>Shitty cheap swords aren't sharpened nicely
I have a shitty cheap one and it was sharp enough that a friend ended up needing stitches in his hand after he was fucking around with it and cut himself.

This woman put this guy in intensive care by slashing his head, face, arms, and abdomen.
She sounds like true bushido.
A sword made out of stainless steel isn't a sword. Seriously, it'll break just like the "practice katana" from that home shopping video.

So the cold steel katana?

If you're willing to pay that much and already have your practical defense needs (guns) covered, consider hanwei swords. They can be had for about the same price and they don't sound so obnoxiously edgy.
This is about the best overview of the Hanwei katana I've found.

and they can actually hold an edge unlike the crappy steel used by coldsteel
Why are katanas advertised with the term "practical" in the title?
Are there "unpractical" katanas out there?
>>30229328
Pretty sure practical means you can cut milk jugs with it in your back yard and it won't break in half
>>30229346
Katanas normally break in half?
I thought you could cut through the earth with a katana.

They do when they're cheap garbage meant for hanging on a wall
