Katana Deflects Bullets

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

And the assistant gunner. And all the spectators. And then it would have passed the tip of the master's cigarette fast enough that the friction would have lit it.

One bullet.

No, no, no! It would have gone back INTO the gun, and killed everyone but the uber-Samurai in a nuclear explosion.

Okay, just have to say I think that katana, as a class of objects, are one of the most aesthetically pleasing objects in the world. I have one and I can just look at it for ages at a time. I'm not the world's most materialistic guy, but I LOVE that sword.

Yes, fine, European swords are great. Yes, pattern-welding, Damascus steel, yes, yes, yes. Fine. Great.

But I like katana. They're so pretty.

And that is the best reason.

The Auld Grump, now me, I like a good warhammer or battleaxe that is about as decorative as a golf club. (And please gods not looking like the PoS shown in the player's Handbook... Bah!)
