![]() ![]() This Blade Has A Full Length Tang Which Greatly Enhances The Strength Of The Sword. The Perfect Combination Of A Hard Edge With The Increased Sori (Curvature Of The Blade) With A Strong Mune, Enables This High Quality Blade To Easily Cut Through Tatami, Straw Mats Or Bamboo For Tameshigiri. This Way The Edge Can Be Very Hard And The Mune -The Spine Of The Sword- Softer Giving It An Excelent Toughness. The Blade Then Get Its Shape With A Beautiful Hamon Hada And Martensite (Grains) On Its Surface. The Fire Can't Be Too Warm Or Cold, Only A Good Swordsmith Knows The Exact Temperature. It Is A Very Complex Technique, As If Not Properly Executed The Blade Will Break. The Hardening Process Is Made By Utilizing A Special Clay On The Edge, So It Gets A Different Temperature And Cools In Different Time Than The Rest Of The Blade, Becoming Harder And Quenching The Blade When It Is Cooled On Water. The Hamon Pattern Is Done By Differential Hardening With Clay Temper. This Blade Is Clay Tempered And Quenched With A Real Forged Hamon, Then Polished And Sharpened By 14 Different Process. And Most Important Is The Edge Which Forged Of AISI 1095 High Carbon Stell (O.95% Carbon, ~59HRC), Making A Very Hard And Razor Sharp Edge. The Back Of The Blade Is Forged In AISI 1045 Steel. The Core Of The Blade Is Made Of Iron To Absorb And Distribute Impact, The Sides Are Made Of Forged AISI 1060 Carbon Steel Folded 11 Times Generating 2048 Layers In The Steel. ![]() The Sword Is High Class For Collection!!! The Blade Of The Sword Has Been Hand Forged And Quenched Using Diferential Hardening, In The Same Methods As Traditional Japanese Sword In The Traditional Shihozume Structure. Full Hand Forged, Hand Polished And Hand Sharpened Work. The Katana and the Wakizashi are engraved with Japanese characters that translate as 'throughout time, God respects the ambitious' and both of these blades also feature a bo-hi to decrease the blades weight even further, also amplifying the Tachi-Kaze (sword wind sound) while the Tanto has a solid bodied blade for maximum durability.ĭecked out in all black fittings and a classic Chrysanthemum themed tsuba on the Katana and Wakizashi no matter which way you look at it, this Daisho set offers exceptional value for money and is suitable for both display and occasional light cutting practice (water filled milk jugs, cardboard boxes, river cane, etc).- The Blade Of The Sword Has Been Hand Forged Using The Ancient Method Of Sword Making. And not only that, each blade is designed to be fast and lightweight, with the flagship Katana weighing only 2.1lbs yet balanced 5 7/8" from the tsuba, making it a popular choice for those martial artists who like a super quick and nimble Katana rather than a 'powercutter'. But unlike most other Daisho sets on the market with stainless steel blades, this set has the real thing. In this case, you get not just one but a full set of THREE blades to make a classically themed Daisho Set (including FREE 3-tier sword stand and a matching Tanto). Something that isn't just 'bark' - but actually has some serious 'bite' to it if ever needed (after all, a purely decorative sword just doesn't have the same presence as a live blade, and the first question anyone who spies a decorative sword will ask 'is it real?'.) While all the Katana swords in the Ryujin Art Sword series are primarily designed for display purposes - the 1045 carbon steel blades are well tempered and surprisingly strong (a well tempered 1045 carbon steel blade like this one is only slightly less durable than a 1060 carbon steel blade ) so that the end result is a true piece of sword art. All too often the more ornate and affordable Katana designs out there are let down by stainless steel (read: purely decorative) blades. ![]()
