Hi,
I've been learning how to use the traditional Chinese Miao Dao (broadsword) and was wondering if it would be practical to commission a katana with the same length. My current broadsword has a 18 inch handle and 44 inch blade, and most katanas I have seen are significantly smaller and shorter than this. Would a katana of this length be possible or would it sacrifice too much of the blade's integrity for this size, and if so where would be the best place to commission this? Technically no budget but preferably ~1000 USD.
Thank you!

That's called Odachi / nodachi. :) yes, possible. I've used 62.9" one.
