Slash veins at the Neck, no!![edit]

There are two kinds of ritual suicide, seppuku and the one you do when under siege and want to escape enemy capture. In non of them the veins of the neck are slashed. If you want to escape capture and are in a hurry, the veins of the _legs_ are slashed, not the neck (how is that anatomical even possible to slash your neck veins yourself?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 223.206.243.183 (talk) 02:28, 6 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

kaiken, not kwaiken[edit]

I don't know where the term "kwaiken" comes from. That is not proper Japanese Romaji, i.e., it doesn't correspond to a Japanese character -- "kaiken" is proper Romaji. If a "W" gets stuck in there, it would have to be "kuwaiken" or maybe "kawaiken". I suspect anglicization, not authenticity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.167.153.170 (talk) 04:36, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ergonomics?[edit]

This thing looks slippery as hell. Is there a functional reason why there's no guard, cord wrapped around the handle, or anything else that may help to ensure the edge/tip cuts only the intended target? FallingOutsideTheNormalMoralConstraints (talk) 17:30, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
