Thanks for watching too. The bamboo in spring and summer seem to splinter a lot more than those in winter. If chance permits I would like to try again during winter and the result may be more attractive. :P

I don't think you have to worry about the Deva Slayer cutting or not. That thing looks like it could cleave the head off a bull.

Hhhahah yes. The sword's power is out of question. The main concern is if I can get the sword up to speed.
