Today’s gadget is the Sword.

The sword is perfect for zombie killing. I have to say there is nothing like a big piece of steel slicing through zombies, taking them out Highlander style!

Highlander

Need to amp up you sword skills? That’s ok you have a few years to study up and so you can start kicking Zombie ass when the time comes.

FACT:  Swords = Greatness

The Highlander is the man!!! He has spawned countless TV episodes (119 to be exact) and 4 movies. You can spend hours upon hours watching and learning from a guy whose sword skills have kept him alive since 1592.  1592!  That’s craziness!  Do you have any idea how long ago that was?!

417 years! That’s a pretty long time to hone in some sweet sword skills.

Other than watching Highlander I guess you can try fencing, but hey fencing is for P****s and fencers will surely be turned to Zombies.

HA! Stupid fencers!

Alright this is a Gadget review not a make fun of fencers review.

But look at them. I can’t help but laugh ...

Alright let’s go over options because we know a sword isn’t just a sword.   It's like the evolution of the pointy stick.

First the claymore:

cm

This is the greatest thing to come out of Scotland since scotch!

Once the weapon wielded by the great William Wallace (who was once portrayed by the not so great Mel Gibson),

it’s a little heavy and can only be used by some pretty big tough guys.

Like this guy:

The Grizz

Next I am sure is the sword of choice for The King.

No, not Elvis! I'm talking about the coolest King in town, Austin of Locksley.

The Katana :

kat

It’s a fast light weight sword that will easily slice zombie limbs off!

One down fall is that it’s a bit too long for The ShortStack

 That's okay though, I found these butterfly swords and I think they'll work great.

bfs

They are short, fast, sharp and full of pain!

 

This guy is 2012 ready to the extreme

haha

 

So to review the review, watch Highlander, get swords, don’t fence.

While the sword is a level 4 weapon it still lacks distance. Please join my next week when we take a look at the Slingshot.

WAIT! Do you know who else used a sword?

the man

That’s right, that guy.  Yeah, he is 2012 ready because he has been battling Zombies like Skeletor for as long as I can remember. Watch, live, learn or become the undead.  Your choice.  

Your friendly neighborhood gadget man,

ShortStack

avatar To be honest I would have to say you have saved yourself hours upon hours of life you would have never gotten back. Because you are you and you dont need training I for one know you are a Ninja and also a He-Man fan.
