just a quick question are you planning on using that or is it just for decoration?

Dude, it's battle ready! Be a darned shame not to slice somebody up. Should have gotten a ninja sword so he could do it secretly and not worry about prosecution.
 
dude, don't encourage the backyard ninja's. after they do whatever they come to class and we are the ones who will have to deal with all the nonsense they did.
I seriously hope you were joking.
 
of course its just for decoration but i need to know what it says, can someone tell me
 
Calligraphy is tough to read, but looks like "Made in China"
 
Looks like "Manchu" script to me

Manchu alphabet and language

Manchukuo was a puppet "state" controlled by Imperial Japan that used to exist before the end of WWII. Maybe this blade was made in that country during that time.

"Made in China" ???
You cracked me up, i'm falling from my chair...
Do you imagine if ever it was that way? You buy a katana for hundreds of bucks and it's written "Made in China" on it!!
 
Glad you got a laugh out of it, it I were the OP I probably wouldn't find it funny though

seriously I can't read it, it doesn't look like Japanese to me.
 
It's not Japanese, to be honest it looks like korean to me. :S
