About MAKOTO Handmade White Sharp Katana Samurai Sword
The 27.5" hand crafted and honed blade is made of 1045 forged high carbon steel. It is full tanged with a cotton cord wrapped tsuka or handle. The wooden saya, or scabbard, has a high gloss white finish and a Geisha printed. Geisha are Japanese women who entertain through performing the ancient traditions of art, dance and singing, and are distinctively characterized by their wearing of kimono and oshiroi makeup. The sword has double mekugis, or pegs, and is razor sharp right out of the box. It is an exceptional sword, especially for the price. To protect the blade from corrosion, a layer of mineral oil has been applied prior to packaging. Please understand you may find the blade covered in yellowish oil waxy residue that makes the sword look dirty/used, however, this is a necessary protection for the carbon steel blade not rusting. You may also find minor scratches on the blade that is formed during the hammering process. This is a nature of the hand forged sword. If you are looking for a mirror like sword blade, please look for stainless steel swords, which are machine made and polished.
