Cosplay Zanpakutou help
 
I've been looking at a few of these and was wondering if anyone here has them or has a gallery/review of them. I'd really like to see the size of them while someone is holding them or something.
First of all is: Bleach - Byakuya Kuchiki Senbonzakura Sword
Second : Bleach Ichigo Bankai Red and Black Wooden Sword - Samurai Swords
and Third : Bleach Hitsagaya Wooden Sword - Samurai Swords

And if possible can someone give me a link to a better replica of either the Senbonzakura or Tensa Zangetsu (Bankai ver.) preferably wood or carbon steel.
Oh and I forgot an important thing, Is Carbon Steel sharp or does it just look like metal but is safe? 'cause I don't want to be cutting up my curtains swinging the sword!

Thank you very much! Any help is appreciated!

Well I cant help you with the wooden swords but I can tell you carbon steel can come sharpened or unsharpened. A few of the swords i've bought are unsharpened carbon steel, but most sites don't sell them that way because the majority of consumers prefer the swords to be sharp. What I do sometimes is if I find a sword that I like and I'd rather it be unsharpened, then I take a sharpening stone and run it straight down the sharp side of the blade. I hope that helps.:vsign:

Oh. Thanks for the idea. Could you tell me if the Senbonzakura one is sharpened or unsharpened? It's the first link in the post.

Nope, the description says false edge so i'd assume its not sharp. :D

Awesome! That means I can freely swing it around!
Thanks Akatsuki!

Well now hold on, I don't think you wanna go swinging it around indoors.

Hmm..how come?

Now don't get me wrong, i'm not calling you irresponsible but I think if you just swing it around you might break something.

Hahaha yeah I just might. Unless I have alot of room. Anyways, as long as I don't cut someone or slice my pants into shorts I'll be fine.

Kk I cant tell you what to do so... but I just want to tell you dont cut anything with the senbozakura, its not full tang. This is the site I use, True Swords - Samurai Swords, Full Tang, Real Blades, Movie, Anime, Video Game, & Manga Replicas and this is the zanpakuto they sell (most of which is full tang.)
