My first free standing noodle session. ($66 siwode link in comments)

It was really giving me a hard time. I was able to successful cut two beforex the video, with a few mess ups. The sword I’m using is a siwode from Amazon for $66 without prime before tax. With prime it’s like $54 before tax. It features real stingray skin alloy fittings and a 1060 carbon steel blade. I will link the blade. I will say the fittings are cheap. And the pins were not in line with either side. But for less than $60 I can’t complain too much.

Here is the sword if anyone is interested in taking a look, seems to be a good budget katana. www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYHYGPZ/?coliid=I1XS7FIKCJJ7QJ&colid=1P30XC2HVV6FA&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_ys_dp_it

I hear Siwode makes good stuff, what do you think of the sword?
