wow who do u expect to knock on your door? the special forces?
personally i like sword training for the same reasons others like kyudo, with time you will achieve some kind of meditative concentration where the only things in your mind are you and your enemy (unfortunately i've not developed that kind of discipline yet ... no idea if i'll ever get there)
i agree with fire that the best weapon to have in a fight is the one best suited for the situation, but i don't think that swords are good weapons for self defence because it's hard to conceal them, or do u want to wear a sword on your belt the whole day?
