Hello everyone!
I am big fan of swords and read and watch a lot about them.
Eastern Weapons in generals are what I like! Never bought a sword yet though (since I am not practicing sword fighting so they would be just decoration anyway) but I do like browsing through Shops and see what they have in store.
Anyway while browsing through Youtube I got to a video of scholagladiatoria, who I follow for a while, and in his recent video he said that the Katana he showed was bought on "Sword of Northshire". So I thought I take a look and for the first time I saw a sword I definately would want!

I played the game a lot and I really love the design of this Katana! Yes it is not 100% Accurate, but accurate enough for me... IF it comes like this!
First of all, 620 bucks is a big number. And I am not quite sure if it is worth that much or not. And if it not worth the price, then by how much? Since it is designed after a Sword from a game I expect to pay a little bit more than I probably would usually...
Also, there is this other elephant in the room...
After browsing a bit further, I saw THIS:
www.ryansword.com/Yamato-Devil-May-Cry-5-Katana-Clay-Tempered-Choji-Hamon-Hazuya-Polish--Ryan1379-p-1248.html
This has the EXACT SAME Pictures as the one from SoN but with "RyanSword" name slapped on it. AND it is quite a lot cheaper!
Tried to find a review for those swords, but the only I thing I found was someone on Reddit posting a picture of the Ryansword version. and well... I said I don't mind if it is not 100% accurate but this looks WAY off! And I only saw the Tsuba, the Tsuka and the Saya on that pictures! The Blade wasn't even shown! Now Ryanswords has 480p Video on their youtube channel about the sword and there it doesn't even look too bad, quite nice actually. But the picture from reddit? Just NO!

Now, to make things short: ARE these sites related? I am just wondering if one stole the pictures from the other.
And maybe someone could recommend me which of those two sellers i should Pic (Price is not the problem here, I am more about the quality).
Does someone maybe bought one of those and can give me firs thand impressions?
I hope you can help me! Thanks in advance =)
