Product description:
High-quality samurai sword with a sharp blade.

The Maru blade is made of carbon steel with more than 0.6% carbon content. The blade was processed with traditional clay hardening. This treatment leads to a real hamon (hardening line), which is designed in the Chu Suguha (straight hamon) style. In addition, the blade was processed with the Sashikomi blade polish, which is usually used for historical swords.
This particularly emphasizes the hardness line and leads to an exclusive look, because this type of polish is also used on much more expensive swords.
The blade is sharpened.

Even at first glance, the handle differs from other modern swords. Hashigami (paper triangles) are incorporated into the handle winding. These give the winding additional structure and are a must for high-quality swords.
The handle made of solid wood is so well adapted to the blade shortage that a mekugi (bamboo pen) is enough to hold the blade in the handle.
This also corresponds to the design of much more expensive swords.

The beautiful sword scabbard with Ishime (drop-like) finish optimally rounds off the high-quality look of the sword.
A very high-quality katana, which is of course also suitable for cutting exercises.
