Like they are, they -absolutely- are. But they're not really the slashing clashing weapons you see in most movies. You basically hold it at a specific angle then crab-walk it into the enemy with comparably minor force.They're hilarious and I have one, but yeah. WAY too long to be effective in most fights other than the nice looking basket handguard.</blockquote>
