Use Your (S)words
I wish I could carry a sword on my back when I’m just walking around. I mean, really, who’d mess with a guy who’s carrying a sword?
I’ve read conflicting things about the legality of it. Some sources say it’s not illegal since it’s not a concealed weapon, others say you need a permit, and others say it’s illegal no matter what. I don’t care, I just think it’s awesome.
I know carrying a sword on your back is a horrible way to carry it (most people’s arms aren’t long enough to unsheath a sword when it’s on their back, and due to my height I doubt I could do it) but it’s not like I’d be using it or anything. It’d be for show. Mostly.
I mean, women carry purses and have big dangly earrings and other accessories. I’d just have a sword. The beauty of it is, it goes with everything. Formal wear, business casual, even a day at the beach!
It’s all fine and dandy carrying a sword on your hip like a samurai, but the coolest guys carry them on their back. Ichigo Kurosaki, Toushirou Hitsugaya, Cloud Strife, Link, the Hero from Dragon Quest VIII, and me. If I had one, anyway.

I think if there was a way to do it without causing me any pain or discomfort; I would go with the Baraka blades grafted into my arms. If people wouldnt mess with someone whos carrying a sword on their back, what would they do when they see the blade emerge from forearm?
Although claws like good ol Wolvie might be a nice pickup instead, just for the SKINT noise they make when they emerge.
You mean the RADDEST guys carry it on their back. Jeez, Joe, get it right.
Oh man, how could I have forgotten that? Now I need to use my sword to commit seppuku.
And Syphon, I don’t know if arm-blades look as cool in reality as they do in Mortal Kombat. Remember movie Deadpool? =/
I agree with ya here, just carrying a sword around would be rad (whether you knew how to use it or not.) If I had one, though, I would carry it on my hip, because I think that would look really cool when (if?) you drew it.
Y’know, there’s a store in the mall that sells swords and other medieval weapons and stuff. It’s the weirdest place. I’ve always wanted to visit it, but I don’t think my parents would support it.
No one should ever bring up Movie Deadpool. In my mind that Deadpool doesnt exist. I was thinking more of the Braka from the fan made Mortal Kombat You Tube video that came out a few months ago. Now those look cool.
Back? Side? Arms? All too small scale.
You gotta pull a Zoro and carry one in your mouth… yeah…
Kind of like that samurai chick from Kenichi?
Cool.
If you ever get your monkey tail, you wouldn’t even need long arms, pulling a sword off your back wouldnt be a problem.
YES. Great idea. Man, you always know the answer to everything.
