Hey guys, My dad just watched Kill Bill and hes been really fond of the Hatori Hanzo swords they have in the movie, So I decided to buy a replica sword, quick Ebay search and I found one from Queensland.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Movie-Replica-Kill-Bill-Bills-Swo…

Measurements are as follows:

Blade Length : 68cm

Handle Length : 28cm

Overall Length : 99cm

Blade Width : 2.6cm

So is there any import laws or anything?
I didnt think so, since its only within Australia, but I just want to make sure.

PS.. Im 18+ so I can leaglly buy it from Ebay.

    You won't have a problem (since you do not live in Victoria).

    In fact, single edge swords and katana aren't even subject to import control.

    Australian federal import laws allow katanas, even real ones. Just check your state laws, not sure about WA.

    Thanks for the replies.
    Yea I looked it up and seemed that Victoria is pretty tough against it.
    WA isnt.
