Not necessarily true actually.  As the bullet leaves the gun, it has a certain force exerted on it, giving an acceleration.  Only after a certain distance does the bullet reach its maximum velocity.  If they placed the katana at the point of maximum velocity, it would do the most damage there.

Cool video though :)  I didn\'t think it would  hold up to the .50 cal bullets that long :D

Well a sword that breaks like that probably had a lot of impurities in it, or simply was folded way too few times. You can\'t expect everything mass produced to be perfect, you can have a defective sword. I wouldn\'t expect all those swords to be that weak. However, I wouldn\'t expect anything that cheap to be strong at all.
