I will be backpacking with my gf (we will be going in October for 3-4 months) and want to know best and safest ways of getting around while on a bit of a budget.
i was in costa rica and i taught i was going to find people looking like mexicans but i was totally wrong... most of costa ricans looks like americans IM NOT KIDDING i saw a lot of people with white ...
I'm Colombian and live in ChÃa, a city about 20 minutes from Bogotá. The movie industry has oftenly shown Bogotá as a terrible and ugly city, as for instance in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith",...
Except for it's extreme hardness and the limited defensive capability that causes (you can't parry a forceful blow with one--you must avoid it), it is the best close-quarters weapon out there. The sharpness and lightness of the katana make it easily the most efficient offensive melee weapon. I might want two swords though, I think I'd like something closer to a rapier for defense and armor penetration.
For real-life home protection, the katana would be an ideal weapon--less chance of an accident than firearms, while being the only sword I'd trust against an intruder's firearm. (That would be an incredible mess though--I think I'd have to move!)

It isn't the sword that's effective, it's the master.

Depends on the user. In the Philippines we have 'Kris' and it's really great and so efficient ! =)

No, because it's not a sword. It's a big knife. Swords are considered to be two-edged. So katanas are technically knives. But they're very big knives, that have been studied for generations by crazy Japanese people who like to be efficient about things, especially cutting other people. So yeah, it's a pretty efficient knife. Sword, no.
