So whether they're shit is entirely up to whoever had to use one the most.

A Katana is an actual sword. Meant to be used in combat against actual swords. Sure it may not be super great at some things but saying that putting it against any other sword is like bumrushing some dude with a pike or a halbred when you're armed with a dagger is just a fucking retarded comparison.

Group meet Cindy. Cindy meet Group. Cindy spends too much time reading comments made by idiots on reddit who like to say Katanas are shit.Technically speaking, they are.Technically speaking if a weapon was actually absolute fucking garbage no one who sees regular combat would be retarded enough to use it. So whether they're shit is entirely up to whoever had to use one the most.>Implying that something being shit at certain things means it's shit at everythingI'm assuming that anyone who's had to use it for years has had to use it in multiple ways.Certain swords and certain weapons are designed for certain tasks that are needed to be overcome for that time. The Katana would not fare well against chainmail or steel plate. It also did not help the Japanese win WWII.I don't. That's not even a proper comparison.What comparison do you want? It's past 4am, I can't sleep, and I'm not a mind reader.I don't want any comparisons. I want to sleep. I see what you're trying to get at but saying a sword isn't as good as a gun is basically saying that water is wet. No fucking shit.Do you use a formation of men equipped with daggers to oppose a pike formation? No, you do not, unless you want your men to die but that's another issue.Better?Bro, iirc the katana was basically just a status symbol for officers in WW2. They weren't expected to actually use the thing. Kind of like how officers still carry mamelukes as part of their uniform in the US.

Swords tend to be more wieldy then Maces, as the point of balance is closer to the hand, but Maces can break plate and chainmail armor, while swords are not nearly as effective. Yes, you can half-sword and aim for the joints or strike with the pommel, but there are better weapons for the job. Do you understand? I'm not saying the Katana is shit against other swords indefinitely, but there are swords designed to do certain tasks better than the Katana can.

Kind of like how officers still carry mamelukes as part of their uniform in the US.iirc they were used in combat, but not by every officer, just those that chose to use them. Pretty sure they were sometimes used in Banzai charges, but not sure on that. They weren't just for dress, at least from what I can remember.

>he doesn't OC a katana for self-defense
