If the SHTF, and I couldn't have a firearm or an actual sword, then I'd prefer one of these.

its so hard to find a good katana/nihonto at a good price, i'm looking for one but yet to find the tsuba and hamon i like. i just might need to get em seperatly. empire wheel tsuba and a progressive hamon which i still havnt seen so if not, himetsuru style will be good too.

nice collection!

The cheapest katana I'd buy is a Paul Chen Practical. It's not folded steel, but it's still forged and temepered and designed to be used.
