This is a Thaitsuki sword and we believe in quality over quantity. Thaitsuki Nihonto swords are hand-made, fully functional, and "battle ready" katanas. They are best suited for practice in all sword arts, completion cutting, and collecting. The Japanese Katanas, hand-made by Thaitsuki Nihonto, are of the highest quality, traditionally made and perfected for over 400 years. Thaitsuki Nihonto has been producing Japanese swords for professional collectors and practitioners of Iaido, Iaijutsu, and Kenjutsu for over 400 years!
The blade of the Hoso Kumiage Katana is handmade and forged from special high carbon Japanese steel (DC53) making a strong, flexible blade with bo-hi (groove).
The tsuka (handle) is covered in same (ray skin) and the Tsuka Ito (handle wrap) is 100% Japanese black silk. The Koshirae (sword mounting/fittings) are handmade from 99% silver.
The Hoso Kumiage Katana is a fully functional Japanese katana and not a replica, it is considered a weapon and it is extremely sharp. This sword can easily sever a 17.78 cm thick bamboo with a single stroke. The Hoso Kumiage Katana can be completely disassembled for full maintenance.
This sword can also be made dull so that you can use it for practice, like in Iaido!
