Full Hand Made Japanese SAMURAI SWORD KATANA BLACK STEEL Oil Quenched FULL TANG BLADE IRON KOSHIRAE

This Katana sword is hand forged using Japanese methods to create the perfect blade for iaido and kenjutsu use. It has black blade which is made of 1060 high carbon steel, and the blade is heat-treated, and oil quenched to achieve optimal levels of flexibility and hardness. Normally, the black color will not fade unless you re-polish the blade. The long Hi on each side, this not only allows for a lighter blade and audible feedback when swung, but also can balance the blade to achieve optimal performance. The round blackened iron tsuba begins with a brass one piece brass Habaki. Two copper Seppas secure the blade of the sword. The Fuchi(sleeve) and Kashira(buttcap) are made of alloy. The Tsuka(handle) is constructed of hard wood over the tang of the blade with black colored ito and red genuine Ray skin Samegawa. Two bamboo mekugi secures the full tang. Two copper Menuki (ornament) are the Tsuka. The Saya has been constructed from wood with black&red high gloss lacquered. The black synthetic silk Sage-o has been tied around the bright copper Kurigata(knob). This sword is a very good choice for Dojo students, gifts, practice, and display.
