About Lyuesword Full Tang Katana Handmade Carbon Steel
Overall Length: 40.5 inch=104 cm Nagasa Lengh: 27.8 inch=70.5 cm Handle Length: 10.6 inch=27 cm Kissaki Shape: Chu-Kissaki Blade Shape: KOGARASU-MARU Blade Width (near Habaki): 1.26 inch=3.2 cm Blade Width (near Kissaki): 0.91 inch=2.3 cm Blade Material: T-10 Hign Carbon Steel Saya Material: High Quality Rosewood Handle Material: Hard Wood + Ray Skin Sori (curve): 1.8 cm Package Weight: 2.0 kg Condition: Brand New In Addition: The blade was made of T10 high carbon steel, and it has been laminated in a Maru structure with a clay temper line. This blade has a shape in "Kogarasu-maru" style, it is the nickname of one very famous sword in that style. There are two Hi on each side, one is longer and shallow which is from habaki to kissaki, one is shorter and deep which is from habaki to the middle of the blade. This not only allows for a lighter blade and audible feedback when swung, but also can balance the blade to achieve optimal performance. A special clay is applied to the blade by hand, using a thin covering near the edge and a thicker layer over the rest of the blade. This results in a relatively quicker cooling of the edge during quenching, producing a harder edge and softer back. The beautiful real hamon is also a result of the differential cooling of the blade (quenching and tempering). Two seppas spacers secure the Tsuba. The Habaki ( blade collar ) is of brass composition. This Saya(sheath)of the sword is Rosewooden. The Sage-O is tied around the Kurikata (knob) (which is OX horn)of the saya, the Koiguchi (scabbard mouth) (OX horn also) and Kojiri (scabbard tip) (made of OX horn)has been hardened. Notice: 1. The sword is attached with saya and free silk bag. 2. Box and stand are not included.
