BLADE: The blade of this sword is hand forged and polished with 12 procedures.the steel we use is not the normal steel with the truck or cars or other life electrics, the steel use for the blade contents much more carbon and the purity can not be comparable.

This is the folded steel blade which has been folded 11 times, 2048 layers. The best known part of the manufacturing process is the folding of the steel, where the swords are made by repeatedly heating, hammering and folding the metal. That controls the carbon of the steel in a suitable range. During this folding period many impurities will be taken away. such as P(phosphorus) and Fe(Ferrum), and the C(carbon) and Fe will be more uniform, the steel will come be Bottom-up contstruction, the toughness will be better at the same time.

TSUKA: The Tsuka (handle) is made of hard wood (wider on the 2 ends and thinner in the middle of the handle), tightly wrapped over genuine Samegawa (Ray skin) with silk Ito. The Fuchi (sleeve) and Kashira (buttcap) are made of Alloy. The Tang of the sword is secured by two Mekugi (pegs). Two Menuki (ornaments) are on each side of the Tsuka.

TSUBA: the tsuba is used to protect your hand from sliding onto the blade during thrusts.

HABAKI(blade collar): is a one piece brass construction. the main point of the habaki is to make the saya tight to the blade,so it is normal if there is scratch on.

SEPPAS(spacer): Two Seppas secure the Tsuba (if the tsuba is not so tight after a long time,you can disassemble the sword and put more seppas there).
