【Why is T10/1095 Steel Good for Katanas?】 For a great authentic katana, you need one with T10 steel. The T stands for Tungsten. The 10 stands for 1.0% carbon content in the steel. Because of its high-carbon content,T10 can become ridiculously sharp, incredibly hard, extra strength and crazy durable. This is why it works perfectly for samurai sword. These crucial factors make this sword a real weapons and battle ready.
【How to Choose a T10 Katana? THE HAMON.】To those who appreciate the real katana, hamon is visual evidence of our maker’s effort to produce the finest blade work. Hamon is the visual effect of clay tempering. The principle behind it is to achieve both hardness and flexibility, which equals strength. These two things combined, make for a great samuira. Did you see that squiggly uneven line that runs through the body of our real katana blades in our photos? That’s the REAL and AUTHENTIC hamon.
【How do We Make this Full Tang Sword?】 Step 1: Heat, hammer, and fold the metal repeatedly over itself. Step 2: Forge the High-carbon steel and the low-carbon steel together. Step 3: Applie a clay slurry to the blade evenly which called clay tempering techniques. Step 4: Quenche the blade into the water to give the sword its signature curve.Then polish the blade, add a groove( Bo-Hi). Step 5: Fasten the blade to the hilt(Tsuka) by bamboo retaining peg(mekugi).
The handle(Tsuka) is made of laminated wood. The Tsuka is wrapped in real ray skin(samegawa). Most commonly wrapped in a twists and turns (hineri-maki) pattern. The guard（Tsuba）, the metal ring under the Tsuba(Fuchi), the pommel(Kashira) are art works in their own right and made of a variety of alloys. They have carvings of dragon, kirin and crane. you can use this katana for training Iaido or protecting youself.

Nagasa： T10 steel with clay tempered and water quenched blade

Our blades are made of T10 high carbon steel.In sword making, the hamon is the visual effect of clay tempering. The principle behind clay tempering is to achieve both hardness and flexibility, which equals strength. A harder steel will sharpen better than softer, retain its sharpness longer, so that's why our blade can resist denting. The flexible spine allows the blade to resist greater impact, without breaking.

Saya(Scabbard)

Saya is made of a particular Wood type produced by a tree called magnolia with lacquer on its exterior. The Magnolia wood is light, dry and easily worked. Sayas can also be used as weapon; in some martial practices; Sayas is used a complementary tool to the blade with which the warrior can strike or cover from strikes.

Tsuka (Handle)

The shapes of this tsuka is "Imogata" (both sides straight). The dragon ornaments on tsuka are called Menuki and under the wrap there is real ray skin Samegawa. The wood is split and carved to receive the tang. The tang is being held by two mekugi pegs wrapped with samegawa and the ito.

Tsuba (Guard)

Tsuba is the guard of the Katana. This guard allows both to protect the blows and to prevent the user's hand from slipping when using the Katana. Tsuba is art work in their own right and made of a variety of alloys. It has carvings of dragon.

What is Clay Tempering? To Combin Rigidity and Flexibility，Hardness and Toughness，Make for a Great Katana！


Heat and Forge the Blade Heat, hammer, and fold the metal over itself using a technique called mizu-uchi (water striking). To force all of the impurities and voids out of the metal. Forge the high-carbon steel and the low-carbon steel together. The hard steel forms the sword's outer shell to provide the sharp edge, while the tough, low-carbon steel serves as the durable core. After the blade cools down naturally now we have a very rigid blade but it’s also brittle.	Treat the Blade with a Special Clay Mixture Now we need to use the differential hardening process to give hardness and sharpness to the blade’s edge and flexibility to its spine. Our seasoned smiths apply a thick mixture of clay and charcoal powder to the blade's upper sides and dull back edge, leaving the sword's primary edge only lightly coated. This serves both to protect the blade and to give it its signature wavy design called the hamon	Tempering the Blade Once the clay is applied, smiths heat the blade in the furnace. When it gets to its optimum temperature it will be glowing red. The blade is then fired to just below 815°C (1500°F). Any hotter and the blade is at risk of cracking.	Quenched the Blade Pull the blade from the fire and plunged or quenched into water. The sword's edge cools quicker and the clay covered areas cool slower. The difference in the degree and speed of contraction between the two forms of steel in the blade causes the sword to bend. This process also gives the sword its signature curve.
