you can say that it's for training and carry around some kind of sword. but i'd keep it concealed. I sometimes carry around my broad sword for training, but keep it in my bag. if i get caught i'll say it's for training. it doesn't make too much sense nowadays for most punks to just carry around a sword as a weapon. most would just get a gun.

you can try google for internet, and ebay for books. but learning the fundamentals would be hard to do without someone telling you what you are doing wrong
