Katana (Sword) w/ writing?

I have a katana that I bought at a martial arts tournament (The same sword is sold on the Asian World Martial Arts website) It's red abd black and has some sort of (Chinese???) writing on the blade. I was wondering if anyone knows what the writing says?

Katana (Sword) w/ writing?
first off, that's Japanese, not Chinese. i understand that its hard to tell, so don't think I'm trying to be a know it all or something. but yeah, i really don't know what it says, but i have a katana with similar writing on it. it looks like a kinda low quality katana, probably decorative only. sorry. hope you didn't shell out too much for it.
Reply:if u no the site it is sold at email them and ask what it means they might no
Reply:I'll be nice. At $20.00 it is DECORATIVE only. If you are studying iaido it is good to pratice "cuts" in the air. If you are studing any style with sword than it is a decent practice sword. If you want to break it hit something hard, like another sword. A Demonstration (what some call Live Steel) blade will run over $100 dollars for a "starter" blade. Watchout price means nothing... I have seen swords for $400 dollars that are decorative. There are 2 schools of thought in relation to Carbon steel blades. A "good" cutting/demonstration ("real sword") will run in the thousands of dollars. Find someone that knows blades and have them suggest a sword that fits your needs and price. If all else fails contact "Badger" and purchase one of their blades.
