Thx for the comments Farb, and yes, I do know what the kanji characters on the sword mean, the one at the top right is for "Warrior/samuari", the other 3 are for beatiful, love, and truth. I Had a blast reading all about japanese swords and looking for Kanji, hiragana characters to help embelish it. The symbol on the metal piece right next to the blade is actually the signature of a famous family in Japan, I found seveal but that one is the one I liked the most.

Its kind of sad that a lot of the detail I have put on the sword will go unnoticed once I move the camera away from it to make room for the scene, I'll have to see how I do this.
