as a samurai i think i have some personal experience in this area. While most white men have brute strength, the techniques of samurai-sword fighting have been forged (forgive the pun) over hundreds of years. I believe that I, as a samurai, I could without a doubt, win in a fight against a european Knight.
Really? I would have thought otherwise given the sheer number of alcoholics and domestic abuses happening in the West... -huh
Lol, not unless if you are a fan of his. Read up on his life and simple quite impressed by it.-whistle
Well, I know he's legendary and all (not to mention I sdore his famous last words) I'll see these kind of collectibles in an museum and not in my own private collection...
it is a crazy sword through regardless whether its in a museum or private collection.... i heard of this story b4 reading this forum and i heard something about someone buying the sword for their father for fathers day.... i hope he likes his gift.....
Bet 6.4 mill was only pocket change for the buyer haha! we got some filthy rich ppl on this earth lol! LOL!

The definition of "useless junk" can be quite fluid. It's not like people are blowing away their money (at their level of buying power) when they purchase bad music, inefficient cars, overrated brandname clothings. So what is there to hate? Will you be any less aggrevated about this random gazillionaire blowing his money off on a PIcasso or Van Gogh?
Hmmm, if Napoleon's sword is worth $6.4 million, how much will a sword of another famous person be worth? Like: - Guan Yu - Miyamoto Musashi - etc
