Attributes of the Weapon:
This katana is the best collection for you or present for your friends, because the blade of this katana is extremely sharp,and we used the most best making way, don't miss such good chance.
Blade：The blade of the sword has been hand forged using the ancient method of sword making. The visible undulating line on the edge was resulted from clay tempering and quenching during forging, it'll never disppear, and will be more distinct with time flies, because it was burned from inner. The back of blade looks like jet black due to whetting through a ancient traditional Japanese manual abrasive technique. and the whetstone is rare, now most of swords can't be whetted like this, because the cost is more expensive, and hardly any bladesmith can make use of this abrasive technique. The whole configuration and handwork is as like entirely as that belonging to former samurai. the material of the blade is high-carbon steel1095,inner core steel, which is resilient and able to absorb shocks, in a way, reduces the possibility of the blade breaking or bending. This creates a blade with hard, sharp cutting edge. The blade shaped Shinogi-zukuri without blood groove, featured Chu points and Ihori blade backs, which has irregular wavy Boshi, and Gunome hamon resulted from quenching and tempering. Futsu shape of full tang has Haagari tang tips.
Guard(Tsuba): The guard (Tsuba) of the sword is oxidized copper. Dragon carved musashi pattern are hand engraved on elegant Tsuba, The Tusba begins with a copper blade collar and ends with a copper fitting featuring leaves in relief.
Saya: This is a real nice saya. the material of the saya is a fruit tree of pear.(the wood of pear tree is a very high quality material of syay).this saya no colored just as itself.we used a nature color cotton to wrap the upper of the saya.
Tsuka: The handle (Tsuka) of the sword is wooden covered in a real red shark skin wrap. The shark skin is then wrapped in a silk wrap. And two subminiature Menuki are rested on each side of the Tsuka. The tang of the sword is secured by two pegs (mekugi). The handle ends with a copper end cap (fuchi-kashira).
In addition, this katana can be taken apart fully anytime to maintenance. You can unassembled the blade from the handle by taking out two pins. It also comes with a cotton bag. We don' have responsibility for death or injury accident caused by the negligent or misuse for this sword.
