Samurai Swords in movies

[moyashi]

2 of my favorite movies.

HighLander and Blade use Katakanas.
The one in High Lander is a Masamune but I don't know about Blade's.

Blade ... combines 2 of my favorite topics. Martial Art fighting and Vampires.

There are a few terrific resources on J-swords:

Nihonto - Japanese Sword

Sho-shin.com

@ moyashi

HighLander and Blade use Katakanas.

maybe it was just a mistake, but the japanese word for sword is katana.
