The blade of the sword has been hand forged using the ancient method of sword making. Full hand forged, hand polished and hand sharpened.

This blade comes with a full length Tang which greatly enhances the strength of the sword. this sword is strong enough to cut through a thick bamboo tree with a single strike yet sharp enough to slice paper.

-The blade was made of t-10 tools steel, and it has been laminated in a Maru style with a clay tempered line. A special clay is applied to the blade by hand, using a thin covering near the edge and a thicker layer over the rest of the blade. this results in a relatively quicker cooling of the edge during quenching, producing a hard edge and softer back. the beautiful real choji hamon on the blade is also result of the differential cooling of the blade (quenching and tempering).
