Talk:Shinobi Blade

It'd really be nice if people would drop the idea of ninja-to being an actual and authentic Japanese weapon. It's not. If you care to verify, visit the Iga-Ueno Shinobi Museum in Japan in today's Mie Prefecture. You won't find a "ninja-to" there. Historically shinobi used the same weapons as samurai, katana. What kind of spy would carry a specific weapon like a ninja-to, which would give away what he is right away, anyway? Not to mention that the most famous shinobi from history were, in fact, samurai. Please people, stop believing what you see in crappy Hollywood movies. -- AK-47
 * Actually...shinobis utilizes any weapon they can find..even some that most people dont consider it a weapon (like a sharpened chop stick). Lightblade 15:38, 1 February 2007 (CST)
 * Where's the source for it being a western invention? The Wikipedia article cites one source from a Japanese author. -- Gordon Ecker 23:25, 13 March 2007 (CDT)

to me, it looks like a ronin blade.--Fiznuckin Biznitch 01:59, 21 July 2006 (CDT)
 * A ronin is just a masterless samurai...they generally carried katanas too. To me, the blade itself actually looks like the blade of the cane sword used by the title character of the Zatoichi series of "Blind Swordsman" movies. DKS01 08:03, 20 March 2007 (CDT)

Anyone else think the history notes belong in trivia? 65.30.20.38 22:29, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Rare drop ?
I've seen one of these drop white, and that's it. I also saw a player selling gold one, and I think this weapon is quite rare ... I even get more Fellblades than these. I've tried to farm myself one of these, but they just don't drop. What do you think ? --Aozora 08:17, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * A guildie sold a purple one for 70k, after having it gather dust on his koss, so it seems to be quite rare. Lord of all tyria 08:26, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

 * Probably from a Locked Chest --Gimmethegepgun 11:27, 5 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Still wouldn't be inscriptable since it's a Factions weapon... Possibly from the Heroes' Ascent chest. Unienaule 11:34, 5 July 2007 (CDT) 11:34, 5 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Or the chest at the end of urgoz' warren or the deep, if they can drop there. Lord of all tyria 11:35, 5 July 2007 (CDT)


 * I thought that loot from Locked Chests were inscribable regardless of campaign? --Gimmethegepgun 11:40, 5 July 2007 (CDT)


 * No, only in Nightfall there inscriptable.

White/blue drops ?
Has anybody seen this drop white or blue, or is it just purple/gold only ? --Aozora 16:31, 9 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Erm, you stated earlier on this page that "I've seen one of these drop white, and that's it." Forgetful are we? :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 16:35, 9 July 2007 (CDT)
