Gold Dragon Sword

Blade characteristics include a tough, hard and very reliable, sharp battle edge, along with very good blade elasticity and desirable resilience. The process and technique is renowned for smithing the finest combat sword blades, and certainly forms a very lethal foundational core to this true Katana sabre.

Further promoting perfection, is the very difficult process of clay-tempering the blade. This process precisely facilitates hardening of the blade’s edge, while leaving the blade’s core and spine softer and thus resilient. Definitely a marker of advanced Japanese sword-making technology and visibly identifiable on this Shinken sword blade. 

Completed with a hardwood, wrapped with real stingray-skin scabbard, solid brass sword-fittings, and a hardwood, wrapped with genuine stingray-skin & quality cord handle, forming a traditional, practical and effective Japanese Samurai hand-grip. 

This Uchigatana sword saber is deadly, and executed with distinct craftsmanship. It’s highly collectable, a treasure to own and a formidable war sword to use.
