It is a dangerous world out there, but if you are prepared for nasty weather, it might not be so bad if you are carrying the Samurai Sword-Handle Umbrella. Then no one could touch you, and you could feel like a proper rain warrior when it pours down.
This particular model is called ‘Umbrellas for the Civil but Discontent Man’ and was designed by Bruce and Stephanie Tharp of Materious. Bad ass.
Implications - But please, do us all a favor and keep it away from me? This incredible collection of swords would make great (and terrifying) decorations for your house, a great gift for a samurai obsessed pal, or a great way to scare off friends, family members or enemies who have crossed you. Bad ass, indeed.
