Hi Mark,

The point is that It had started as a joke of mine about the question "what would you bring if you were in the Middle Ages?" and I replied "a Nihonto, so whoever disturbs me I can slice him up" (obviously written ironically)... The guy replied "Nihontos suck," and that's where the discussion started. But I really don't think they sucked so much that they couldn't kill a man 

My answer to this would be a crossbow 😂😂 and a very fast horse.
