Congrats on the decision and your choice of vendors.
Just remember not to be overconfident on any swords ability to stand up to abuse. Any sword can fail and the odds of it happening go up if you loose sight of that fact.
Cut safe friend!

Oh, I couldn't agree more. I just like that it's very durable, not unbreakable.

Can't wait to see how you manage to mess it up.

Just a small tip-
If it's your first sword, and you have yet to learn how to cut properly, i'd go for the musha with bo-hi (infact, i did myself when i bought my musha)
The presence of tachi-kaze will slowly help you learn proper edge alignment.
Also, i join BW's advice of getting a boken first, it's cheap, and could save you trouble when you start using sharpies.
Putting that aside- Good choice, i'm sure you'll like it.

Thanks for the advice, and it's not my first. More like my 3rd and they both have bo-his, but I will say this one was more throughly researched before purchase compared to the others.
