I'm a katana collector and my interest has been so far focused on unique kinds of swords. For almost two years, I been trying to find a beautiful, live blade of a certain katana. And it's got o tsuba or any kind of handguard or writing/symbols on the scabbard or handle. Ever since I watched Kill Bill Vol.1, I seen a particular kind of sword that the character has that was played by Lucy Liu. Is her sword a shikomi~zue or a shirasaya? I do know all about the differences between a shirasaya and a shikomi~zue. But, I want to own the EXACT thing as the character, O-ren, from Kill Bill. All I ever see on the net is imitations, some not even look like the one in the movie, and weird different curves. I just think her black katana is beatiful, I would do anything just to get it!!! Anyone know any source or spot one? Any answers would be GREATLY appreciated!
