>pros: Katana
>cons: Katana

>pros: folded a million times cuts razor tanks.
>cons: you probably kiss boys.

It's a sharp piece of steel, reasonably choppy, rather lacking in dakka though. Needs more dakka.

Pro: you have a weapon that is deadly within 5 feet

Cons: you're an autistic faggot

UPSIDE:
Cut filthy yankee machine guns in half, deflect bullets, teleportation powers, indestructible blade

DOWNSIDE:
You are a disgusting roundeye who will not commit to the ways of bushido and thus will never be able to properly wield it.

>cons:there is none

Yo dawg, u ain't seen dat glock rip off da whole clip. Shit sword ain't gon be able to stop my bullets

I read and watch a lot of manga and anime and let me tell you that you are only wasting your money. For the same cost and practicality, get a 9mm instead. It's also too gruesome to cut someone and it'll just give your trauma.

>pros
>it's sharpened metal

>cons
>you'll only have mcdojos to learn how to use it.

>>30384619
I've read books on bushido and it's not really necessary for mastery of weapons. It's mostly a method of social control.

>pros: you'll have the means to ensure your freedoms
>cons: you'll be put on the katana watch list

>pros: You have something better than your bare hands in terms of weapons + if you hit something hard enough you get a sick ass kukri.

>cons: You'll never hug, kiss, fuck, or even be able to talk to a girl ever again due to crippling autism and you will have spent $?,??? on a katana. If you hit something too hard it will break.
