You beat me to this one. It seems it should be possible with new alloys and CNC production. If it's not, there's clearly something I don't know about the issue. Maybe there's just not enough demand for the mass production that would bring the cost down.
Remember what I said about martial arts progress being driven by its practitioners not it's instructors?
This is not one of those martial arts.
Chris flips an absolute wig over this subject. So where I could go to the hardware store and buy an axe or machete (Any big dangerous sharp thing) and be able to use that for all the practical purposes they get used for. A sword has some sort of different mechanic that prevents you from learning any sort of usable technique without the exact correct instruction and equipment.
