Kyuubi4269 02/13/18 9:35:36 AM #8:	Babbit55 posted... A Longsword is longer (it is a 2 handed weapon after all) Katanas are two handed, they have a longer handle ffs. Babbit55 posted... not quite as good at cutting because of no curvature mind you Curve is for technique, it has no bearing on cutting potential. Babbit55 posted... though a significantly better lunge Not really, just more weight for better penetration. Babbit55 posted... and the much better cross guard too. They don't have a cross guard, so obvs. Babbit55 posted... It is less likely to break when hitting something hard too, like another sword. More likely to dent and blunt, or should I say unavoidably will dent and blunt more, while katanas won't break if you use them sensibly. --- RIP_Supa posted...
