With a Samurai sword handle, you will be begging for rain with our awesome Samurai Umbrella! Unlike ordinary umbrella's, this one kicks ass as you strut down the street with it strapped to your back, ready to whip it out at the very site of a grey cloud. Use your cunning and stealth-like Ninja instincts to detect moisture in the air. Glide your Samurai Umbrella out of its sheath and save the world/ your coat from impending doom/ getting wet by Ming the Merciless/ rain. This large black umbrella is fantastically manly and can be carried around in honour and pride as you hop gayley from puddle to puddle. This top quality umbrella opens at the push of a button and is ideal for impressing friends, co-workers and girlfriends as you make whooshing noises, do that 'Look, I'm pretending to be a dubbed Japanese Ninja film!' voice and jump around like a rabid dog in space boots.

Review by Scotticus
I've had this umbrella for a month now and have really enjoyed it. While I would not attempt to take it through airport security due to its weapon-like appearance, I do carry it everyday. It definitely garners its share of looks. The handle feels very comfortable in hand and the length of the handle means both hands can easily be used to wield the umbrella when encountering strong winds or water-gun wielding ninjas. The material and mechanism of the umbrella are good quality and it opens smoothly with a single click of a button.
The nylon "sheath" is also very practical due to the extra-long, adjustable strap. It allows one to wear it across the back or over the shoulder -- a hands-freeing feature that very few other umbrellas have. The sheath is also where my only complaint comes from. The umbrella is significantly heavier on the handle end which pulls the handle end down. Unless worn across the back or balanced by a hand, the handle end will want to dip down and the umbrella can accidentally slide out. While mildly bothersome, I find it an acceptable trade-off for the easy draw action the sheaf affords.
PROS:
++Unique, distinctive appearance
++Good quality
++Extra long handle
++Easy draw, adjustable "sheath"/cover
CONS:
--Handle end wants to slide down in certain cases when worn in sheath and not steadied
I would highly recommend this for those who would enjoy a unique take on a ubiquitous item.
