accessories of the sword are all authentic from the ray skin
handle, to silk sage-o and copper oxidized fittings. This is
the best sword you will find in the price range.
Blade:
This
katana is hand made by traditional technique of Japanese forging. Two
pieces outer jacket steel wrapped
around a relatively softer, 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
visible tenuous undulating grain on the blade was resulted from
folded repeatedly during forging. 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.
