Does anyone out there know how to make weapons? Or have access to ones that aren't the usual sort you see around the temples?

I've been using this sword, a katana, for a while now, but I'm starting to feel the small differences between what I'm using and what my body expected are holding me back. Trouble is, I'm not sure just what I'm after, either, so that makes it harder... but I want to see if I can find a weapon that truly fits me. Something like I used when I was alive, I guess.

It's not a question of strength, it's leverage, balance, and weight. My current sword feels just a shade too heavy, but at the same time I keep subconsciously expecting it to be wider...

So you can really only use one specific weapon ever?

I haven't met anything I can't take down with my current sword. That doesn't mean I don't want to find something like I expect to use. Like I did use in life.

I guess it's different if you remember when you were alive, huh?

It never occurred to me that it might make a guy pickier about things.

I don't remember my sword... not well, anyway. Not consciously. But I expect to move in a certain way. Imagine if your legs were an inch shorter when you came here. You wouldn't remember that directly, but you'd feel something was wrong with every step you took.
