What else can you do with a sword? According to legend Kahless used the
first batlh'etlh--or "Sword of Honor"--when he slew Molor on the banks of
the River Skraal, when he conquered the Fek'ihri, when he forged the First
Empire, when he skinned the Serpent of Xol, when he harvested his father's
field, and when he carved a statue of his own beloved Lukara. (cf. "The
Sword of Kahless") 

Voragh
---------------------
Well, as I mentioned in a previous post, my use of this particular phrase was only
as an example of the sentance construction.

However, I too see the use of a sword as Donald Vick does.  Whatever Kahless may
have done with his sword I hold more to the Japanese reverence for swords.
