1942 Double-Edge Marine Combat Sword And Sheath - AUS-6 Stainless Steel Blade, Leather Stacked Handle - Length 27 1/2”

It cuts bottles super nice. The easiest form for cuts, is to stand with the left foot forward, right hand up,, then perform a number 1 cut by focusing on two motions,,, flex from your left hip to swing,, and close your right pinky hard to perform the apex of the swing. ,, so, first practice closing your hand to pull from your wrist,, then practice using this wrist motion (don't move the wrist,, pull hard on the pinky) so that both motions apex at the point of impact.,, then perform some full speed swings in the air to hear the swoosh pitch is highest right at the apex. ,,, once you swing at the soda bottle,, you will have to look and find the bottle to believe you hit it, because you won't feel a thing. all 5 stars are well deserved.

Almost identical to the tanto V-42 model but twice the fun with double edges. Still light, quick, farley balanced and strong due to the AUS 6 steel. The leather handle smells great but doesn't fit as tightly against the butt cap like the tanto model, there is a slight gap. Also the guard is a thinner gage steel in comparison to the tanto model making the feel and fitment of the handle a bit weird when your hand is choked up close to the guard. The sheath is also slightly different in style comparing to the tanto model, it's slightly cheaper construction. All in all another fun great sword and good buy overall.
