comment
i think this was faked, jus to show that the blade was sharp & stuff
i guess he had to pay for the katana after he broke it
He poked it?
…wow. nice comment
Not faked, I used to sell exactly that model on my market stall. They are not for practice, they are shitty cheap ornaments. If you hit anything of substance (like a table) with them then the thin poorly welded rod that holds the blade onto the handle *will* snap, sending the blade flying. I had one that was so bad, the bolt that holds the rod (that is welded to the blad) in the handle can also *easily* strip off, I swung one of these and was lucky no-one was around because the blade just flew out of the handle a long way and scared the shit out of me. Through blade construction *only* should be used for swinging around or hitting anything.
but it would also show that the thing breaks easy. also he said practice katana so why would they want to show us how sharp it is?
“we may need emergency surgery…” he continues, “Because
our katana is awesomely sharp! won’t find a sharper one out
there folks…”
i think you’re right – that sword sucks!
but seconds 8-10 are pretty priceless
No, it isn’t fake, it was a cheap blade to start with. This happened some five years ago. Give it a burial and forget it.
All the display and practice blades are cheap….they’re not properly made, with tangs that will break off (read: no hilt), and blades made from stainless steel, which will shatter.
Yeah, 44 dollars for a katana puts it at the level of basically garbage. You would NOT want to hit ANYTHING with it. These people are idiots. Trying to cut with, or even swing a katana that runs anything less than $500 (good ones range way into the thousands) is just a bad idea, and unless you’ve training, you’ve no business doing it anyway. I’m glad this dipshit hurt himself.
Yay, number one!
Thats what you get.
FAIL
Playing with knives is a baaaaaaad idea!
Wasn’t too sharp of him…
he is quite dull…….
Maybe he should have kept his nose to the grindstone.
I think he got the point, though.
You guys left some pretty keen comments on this.
Knife one!
First european comment
Like an uncircumsized chub?
Oh noes, the germans speak up again?!?
Quality fail
I don’t think I’ll be ordering Item# 1101-1816 today.
Ditto
Did it almost get you?
Seppuku?
accidental Seppuku?
Occidental Seppuku.
Foxy-dentists say “poke you”?
Say, Poke who?
Facts:
1. Ninjas are mammals.
2. Ninjas fight ALL the time.
3. The purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.
No, you’ve got it wrong. Safety is third, always.
…but only if his eyes are soda, yo!
That’s some strong steel
This seems really useful for getting ride of duchebags
You’re doing it wrong
Actually the guy in the video almost succeeded in getting rid of one.
That’s some edgy television.
I tuned in to watch Blade Runner, and this guy was on instead.
Did they cut into their regularly scheduled programming?
Quit the puns and get to the point – only tip I’ll give you.
It takes some time to learn the score around here.
But once you get a slice of the funny stuff… you’re hooked!
Remember: Always pay attention or risk truncating the pun-run.
If the pun-run comes to an end, We must start carving a new path.
And you may be axed from the group.
Yes, we’d be forced to ask you to cleave.
There will be sever punishment if you don’t.
So, if you can’t hack it, don’t reply.
C-C-C-COMBOBREAKER!!!!
Remember though, if you’re not sure, just take a chance and roll the dice(r).
Shopped at home.
His assistant pix[els] up the pieces when he’s finished.
Did he dice?
I think he sliced.
Cut!
That’s a wrap.
On to the next clip.
He just slashed the price for us.
We finally can use the ‘Did he died?’ and it may actually be true…
That product is a cut above the rest…
It hit his nipple?
Just the tip
Probably sold a few just because that was hilarious.
get what he deserves
He said “Practice Katanas” so isnt a real katana.
THis clip is so old.
I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that this post is ironic. That, or you can’t read.
I’m not.
I used to work at that place and wish I had seen that live. Those guys are totally hillbillies and shouldn’t be touching swords EVER!
Did they died?
I’ve seen him cut himself on live TV before =D
This is not a Hattori Hanzo!
surely that’s MAN fail, katana win?
Precisely my thought.
I think he got the point.
That is definitely a win on the part of the katana. Katana don’t fail. Humans do. That guy is stupid……
FATALITY
Made in China
see what i did there? they made their life long rivals a crap sword on purpose since they already knew Made in China items are Rubbish
This is mockery to Japanese Swords lol
What a great product, breaks after two thwaps on a table.
A classic! But they cut it short!!! The best part was Odell’s “emergency surgery in the studio.” Find it on You Tube, you’ll see what I mean.
srsly
THE BEST PART OF THAT WAS CUT OUT !!!! O’DELLS FACE IS PRICELESS !
IT HAS A DRAGON RIGHT ON THE BLADE
A warrior is never disrespectful to his katana…and that’s why. It’ll cut you, beetch.
Two words that you assume are going to be problematic when put together:
Katana and Fail.
He’s lucky he didn’t lose his Tokugawa! Oda be more careful!
(okay shogun one liners only work for a very select audience)
I know who Tokugawa was, but not Oda.
I got the Oda pun, but not Tokugawa.
WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
At least he didn’t make walrus-in-heat sounds like the lady who fell out of the wine bucket.
I’m thinking they might wanna take 50% off that price tag right about now.
Just the tip?
Katanas are Japanese samurai weapons – able to slice down opponents in one swing.
(Are medieval people free to use their other hand opposite to where their daggers or kunai are?)
I don’t know if this is sad or awesome but I have two of these I bought an a flea market 3 years ago…for 10 bucks each. Also, yeah the blades are really just ass crappy as that.
If that was Mike Rowe when he still worked for QVC he’d pull the blade shard out and use it as a selling point to prove how sharp they were.
You know, I love Failblog, and videos like this are why, but they just kill it by advertising that failbooking crap at the end. If your gonna put out a new website, make it original. Dont make a carbon copy of Lamebook and call it yours.
I think a piece of that might’ve just got h]=im.
News update:
He had to go to the hospital; he rode the short ambulance over.
We uhhhh may need emergency surgery.
First off it’s not a proper katana, not enough curvature on the blade, however they do seem to have the carbon-steel ratio almost right. Real katana contain a high amount of carbon folded into the steel (used to be river iron) so they can take an insanely sharp edges… but the tradeoff is that they’re quite prone to shattering.
That’s why I tend to laugh my way through most “samurai” and “ninja” movies where they block… no-one who’s every used a katana ever blocks (sometimes you deflect, but never block) because they shatter like glass…
What a moron!
I’d hate to see the mean thing about those katanas!
Next up our “Home-medic” kit, you’ll be able so see how to field dress a stab wound, re-attach a nipple and fire O’dell.
Darwin Awards ftw
Is the guy who comes in after 1/2 mental ? SLUR VOICE ON .. we may need emergencccccyy surrrergggrry … shouldnt he be on the sound crew?
ok, so how do a buy one?
Who wants to play “Just the tip”
Ouch
its a katana WIN XD
i like how he keeps talking even though he’s hurt…
self shanked?
was even more funny when the second guy said that he needed emergency surgery!
I want one!
And the director said “CUT!”
Too bad, the cut came before his words..
Trap for those people who just can’t leave your stuff alone.
… and the nice thing about these practice katanas, is that they break at the slightest impact and impale the person who wields them! Order now!
I wonder what he would have done with a shotgun…
Mood = Stabby.
No wonder it was only 44.95
Katana WIN!
This is an old fail… I saw it around 2002.
Haha, the ad that played before the video is fail, too. It’s for Palermo’s pizza, and it says, “Palermo’s: Family’s the main ingredient.” Whoa, I’d rather not be eating Grandma with anchovies, thank you.
Just so you know, ads tend to change, so you may have been the only one to see that one.
440 Stainless Steel isn’t intended for use in swords or blades longer than 10 in. It has a tendency to shatter or break at longer lengths so it’s usually limited to knives. Advertising a 440 blade as a “practice sword” is asking for bad karma to hit home.
Does it come with extra balls just in case?
Ehahehahehe totally fake ! EMERGENCY SURGERY He nearly got his head chopped off lol. So fake. I even think the plan is that he injures himself from the start.
that’s what happens when you don’t know what you are dealing with
Dumbass
they mentioned this in the third futurama movie. Thats the item number for the knife gollumb fry got, and it even snapped in half. it even says so in the comentary!
