Oriental swords have increased in popularity.

If anyone had asked me a few weeks ago what the difference between samurai swords and ninja swords I would have honestly not had a clue. The wonders of the internet meant that within fifteen minutes I had enough information to allow me to find out a little about these marvelous weapons.

These two swords seem to be extremely popular for both weapon collectors and oriental enthusiasts alike.

They have captured the imagination of ancient civilizations along with the morals and ideals that each of these cultures showed.

Ancient feudal Japan entrusted its defense to an elite band of warriors known as the Samurai. These were highly respected individuals whose values of respect, loyalty, pride and honor were second to none. There intricate relationship to the royalty that they served gave them a very high standing in their community.

The ninjas however were a band of fighters that were highly feared, these fighters were perfectionists in deception and imitation and their swords matched the virtues of their owners. Whilst Samurai swords were weapons which were respected and treated as valuables the Ninjas considered their swords to be useful and disposable.
