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 Sword Maintenance Kit comes in a lightweight wooden storage box and includes all the essential tools needed for regular blade maintenance. The Uchiko powder ball contains fine polishing powder and is gently tapped along the blade to loosen old oil and surface impurities. The residue is then removed with the included soft microfiber cloth. Finally, apply a thin layer of clove oil to protect the blade against rust and corrosion. Regular maintenance helps prevent fingerprints, moisture damage, and other stains that can permanently affect the blade's finish. This maintenance kit is an essential accessory for collectors, Iaido practitioners, and sword enthusiasts alike. Clove Oil (Tsubaki or Clove Oil) The oil protects the blade from rust by forming a thin protective barrier against humidity and moisture in the air. As the protective film gradually evaporates over time, it is recommended to reapply the oil at least once a month. Uchiko Powder Ball The Uchiko powder ball contains fine polishing powder. By gently tapping both sides of the blade, it loosens old oil, fingerprints, and fine contaminants. When used together with the microfiber cloth, it helps restore a clean and polished blade surface. Microfiber Cloth The soft microfiber cloth is used to remove the Uchiko powder, oil residue, fingerprints, and other contaminants from the blade. It is also ideal for applying a thin, even coat of maintenance oil across the entire blade. Brass Mekugi Remover (Mekuginuki) The brass Mekuginuki is used to remove the bamboo retaining pins (Mekugi) from the sword handle, allowing the sword to be safely disassembled for maintenance. The brass hammer head can be unscrewed from the handle for use. Sword Maintenance InstructionsClean and maintain your sword after every use, whether it has been used for Iaido practice, Tameshigiri, or is simply displayed as part of your collection. 1. Remove Old Oil Use the microfiber cloth to wipe the blade thoroughly from the tip toward the handle, removing old oil and light surface contamination. 2. Apply Uchiko Powder Gently tap both sides of the blade with the Uchiko powder ball. The fine polishing powder helps lift old oil and dirt from the blade's surface. 3. Wipe the Blade Clean Carefully wipe away all Uchiko powder using the microfiber cloth. Repeat the process if necessary until the blade is completely clean. 4. Apply Fresh Oil Apply a small amount of clove oil to the microfiber cloth and spread it evenly over both sides of the blade, working from the tip toward the handle. Only a very thin protective film should remain on the blade. 5. Regular Maintenance Every 3–4 months, it is recommended to disassemble the sword and clean the tang (Nakago) in the same manner before applying a light coat of oil.
