Product information "Imperial Forge - Katana Forged Steel"
Imperial Forge: "We are proud to introduce our new Imperial Forged Steel Sword Collection; masterfully hand crafted specifically to be used in "the way of the sword", rather then hung on the wall. Using specially forged and tempered high carbon steel we've produced a high quality blade that truly out performs our competition. The Imperial Sword Collection exceeds the expectations of martial artistes for strength, cutting power, and most importantly, craftsmanship.

Each sword blade is individually hand forged, heat treated, tempered and polished by skilled hands creating a true battle ready weapon. Keeping with Japanese traditions our Imperial Sword Collection is crafted using only traditional materials and fittings. The Tsuba (guard), Fuchi (collar), and Kashira (pommel) are expertly made and finely crafted from black iron. The Habaki (blade collar) is hand made out of polished brass and each tsuka (handle) is covered in black ray skin and tightly wrapped in the traditional cross over style ito (braid) with green or black cord.

It takes time to produce swords of this quality and this is why our Imperial Sword Collection is more difficult to acquire. It is best to order or reserve your blade as soon as possible as we do not always have full availability in stock. We take great pride in the quality and performance of or swords, we will not compromise this quality and performance just to sell more."

TOP!!! - Tsuba neues Designe ( schade )

Habe die neuere Version ( wie abgebildet ). TOP verarbeitet... schade nur das keine Angaben zum Stahl vorhanden sind, da IF´s neue Homepage ertsmal unübersichtliche Massen anbietet. Fand die alten 3 Versionen Übersichtlicher FORGED - 1050 spring ( obwohl IF´s Angaben mit HRC 60/40 bei spring steel quatsch waren :-) FOLDET - 1060 LIMITED - 1080 Habe auch das alte foldet, IF ist für mich eine der besten Manufakturen ( neben meinen LAST LEGEND Schwertern ) Als nächstes das LIMITED.

Habe zwar sehr lange auf mein schwert gewartet, so ca. 6 Monate, aber wie es dar war wär ich sehr glücklich, ein fantastisch verarbeitetes schwert, von höchster Qualität, sehr scharf, sitzt perfekt in der Scheide, einfach schön anzusehen, fast zu schade damit man es auch verwendet,...

Hallo, dies ist mein erstes Katana und es einfach fantastisch, es sieht genau so aus wie auf den Bildern, ist schön scharf und liegt wirklich sehr gut in der Hand! Das Schwert sitzt fest in der Scheide und die Griffwicklung ist auch schön stramm. Man sollte sich bei seiner Bestellung allerdings auf eine Wartezeit von bis zu 8 Monaten einstellen (zumindest war es bei mir so) aber das Warten hat sich definitiv gelohnt! Danke an das Swords & More Team für die Mühen und den tollen service. Gruß Nick

Das Katana ist sehr gut verarbeitet, die Griffwicklung sitzt bombenfest, so muss es sein. Die Klinge weist eine sehr gute Qualität auf, ist sehr scharf und einfach schön. Ärgerlich ist, dass das Katana ziemlich heftig in der Saya klappert und kaum Halt hat.... Letztendlich aber ein absolut feines Katana, welches viel mitmacht und sehr gut in der Hand liegt. Lob an Swords and more für die unkomplizierte Beschaffung.

Habe heute am 8.10.2009 mein Imperial Katana bekommen, wie immer bei Swords and more, alles sauber und sicher verpackt, das Katana sowie die Scheide hat keine Macken ! Ein dickes Lob an Swords and more! :-)) Das Katana eine Wucht, die Klinge ein Traum, kann mich meinem Vorgänger nur anschliesen, schön und scharf !! Schneidet Papier aus der Hand wie Butter! Auch harte Ziele muss man nicht scheuen, Bambus kein Problem, es kann sicher noch viel mehr ertragen, aber dazu ist es mir zu schade !! Die Saya schwarz glänzend, schön und sauber gearbeitet, 2 schöne Shitodome!! Die Tsuka-Maki mit Fuchi u.Kashira, sowie Habaki, Tsuba, Seppa, alles sitzt Bombenfest! Diese Katana ist wunderschön, ohne überflüssige Schnörkel, und vor allem Schlachtbereit, ich besitze drei weitere harte Cutter, dieses braucht sich vor keinem zu verstecken !!

Maintenance Kit
The maintainance kit has everything in it which you need for the must of care for your handmade sword. Comes with oil and powder. Oil is used to prevent the rust of the sword. Oil makes a film of the oil between the sword body and the air, and it prevents the oxidization of the sword body. Oil dries in about some time. Therefore, reprint it in the new oil once in a month. The thing which made a whetstone powder-shaped is being packed into the Uchiko. White powder appears from the Uchiko when a sword body is struck with the Uchiko. There are two use purposes. The Uchiko removes the old oil which sticks to the sword body. Furthermore, the Uchiko beautifies the surface of the sword. Nuguigami: The Nuguigami is not just regular paper, it is high quality thick japanese paper for cleaning swords. It is used for wiping out old oil and wiping out the Uchiko. The Mekuginuki is used to remove the Mekugi of the sword. The Mekuginuki can remove the Mekugi with the sharp part. In order to use the Mekuginuki for removing the Mekugi, the hammerhead part can be removed from the rest of the Mekuginuki. How to take care for your sword: How to take care of the sword after an Iaido practices or Tameshigiri will be explained with this topic. Take care of the sword after the practices always. If the care for the sword is neglected, a sword rusts in the sweat of the hand. Face an edge toward the top, and pull out a sword slowly from the sheath. Then, be careful not to damage a sheath. Hold the sword pulled out with your left hand. Then, remove old oil and dust from the sword with the Nuguigami. Put a Nuguigami on the Mune of the sword when wiping the sword, and wipe the sword toward the top from the bottom. Pat a sword body with the Uchiko. Powder equally on the both sides of the sword body. Then, wipe the white powder with the new Nuguigami which is different from the paper used some time ago. Repeat this handle, and remove the blurs of the oil completely. Apply new oil to the sword body, and put away a sword to the sheath. Put the oiling paper on the Mune of the sword when oiling the sword, and oil the sword toward the top from the bottom. Don't oil a sword in quantity very much. Oil equally the both sides of the sword body. If the care for the sword is finished, put a sword in the sword bag, and keep it. Keep a sword in the place where it dries in the shade. How to take care of the sword of this topic isn't perfect. Therefore, remove the hilt once in three months, and care for the tang (Nakago) and so on.
