Even if the home invaders I dispatched with a stab to the guts were known violent robbers that had left a trail of victims from every home they crashed, I still would rather not explain to a jury why I dispatched them with a razor sharp gladius. I can see all 12 pairs of eyes squinting at me even now.
Well, ya know, if it happens after 9 PM that's supposed to be quiet time, and the sticker is good for that, as opposed to a gladius ignitus, unless it has a really good muffler.

Apparently Hopkins students have a habit of using Katanas.
