According to folklore, in Korea, Gokotai managed to fend off 5 tigers. The man who use it was a diplomat with little military backrground, so he started to strike the air like a madman, and the tigers fled (or took pity in him... lol). Later, a sword expert said to the Emperor Gokotai was a really great blade underestimated by people, so Meiji Tennô who was the current owner said he could defeat 10 tigers with it. Emperor Meiji was known for being fond of Sumo in his youth, and a sword lover. Sadly, he didn't helped a lot in safeguarding ancient knwoledge of sword smithing.
