Sorry if I'm drifting off topic, but I was wondering what the hazards are of having a hi on a blade that will be used for tameshigiri. Is the sword significantly weaker? And is the risk of bending large enough that it would be better to look for another sword without a hi? Thanks!Originally posted by renfield_kuroda
It has bo-hi, but it has a decent girth so no fear of bending unless I really try to power it through huge targets.
