Is 忝い（かたじけない） used in contemporary language?


I'm currently watching Rurouni Kenshin, and Kenshin says 忝い（かたじけない） a lot to
express his gratitude. I looked it up a little and based on
[this](http://www.tofugu.com/2008/02/09/how-to-talk-like-a-samurai/) it seems
like it's old Samurai language, but I wonder if people use it today with no
intention to be Samurai-ish? Sort of like "I appreciate it"?




No. かたじけない is one of the most famous 武士語/サムライ言葉, but it's never used in
ordinary conversations today.
