Identifying Ninja Swords

I have always asked myself what the difference is between a ninja sword and a japanese samurai sword, so I decided to carry out a bit of research on both and finally solve the mystery.

These weapons seem to be highly popular for both weapon collectors and oriental enthusiasts alike.

These weapons represent an entire culture and civilization but the owners that wielded these weapons have very different morals and values.

The samurai warriors were entrusted with defending the royal family, which made them very feared in their community. These individuals lived on a strict code of honor, valor, pride and respect which made them an elite fighting force.

The ninjas however were a group of warriors 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 valued and treated as valuables the Ninjas considered their swords to be useful and disposable.
