My samurai represents respect and strength; the ability to conquer, but with the judgement to know when. The text on the blade is Rev 19:15 and I interpret the verse to speak of god's word conquering all evil.
The verse says "Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. 'He will rule them with an iron scepter.' He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty."
