My father was a collector and dealer of ancient arms and armor. I do not recall his collection ever including Vietnamese swords/weapons. These weapons are exceptionally beautiful and seem well-crafted. Thank you for posting the vid.

I'm Vietnamese and I'm glad to know that we had some badass weaponry.

your swords are nice, but the japanese katana is superior to the vietnamese sword. sorry pal, but katana is best of all swords.

Katana is just one version of Asian swords. You can see in this video, there are many sword versions that look similar to katana. The katana may seem beutiful, but useless in battle. It doesn't protect your hand. In Vietnamese version, there's a guarding part for hands. In Antique Asia, there were Blade and Sword. The katana is more like a thin blade while the other kinds of blade are thick.

With million of folding time and the carbon in the steel is so high that it's basically a piece of coal the katana can cut through the universe and can only be use by those masters the sword for 50000years or just some random guy on the internet claiming that the katana is the best sword while in real life it can't even cut through a thin plate armor because it can't hold an edge and would be useless again high speed sword fight since it's intended to only slashing and not stabbing

@TheMHandDSfan needle in Vietnamese is "kim" and sword is "kiếm". In English, it may be pronounced as the same ^^"
