    You can buy a decent katana sword for about £150. Not sure what that is in dollars or anything, but its nice and sharp and very well made, search for Paul Chen somewhere if youre interested.
    Although you could of course have a hand crafted katana specially made for you using the folding technique, for a few thousand whatevers.
    If you really want a sword that isnt going to fall apart id give paul chen a look, and just be careful what you see on ebay as well ;)
