I was looking for a functional replica of Trafalgar Law’s nodachi from One Piece, and I found one that’s nearly 100% accurate, however the price seems high for 1045 steel. I looked around for reference prices and I found a T10 nodachi for not extremely that much more. Can somebody let me know if I am right or wrong and what to do to possibly get a better deal?
