Perfect for ornamental sword display, this decorative sword makes a visually stimulating and captivating collection piece. It’s a beautiful Katana and will not only make a unique display martial arts weapon, but also functions as a battle effective and very deadly combat sword.
The most valuable part of any sword is its blade, of which this T10 Katana blade certainly forms a very high quality core to this battle ready Katana.
T10 is the highest carbon content steel used for sword making and is arguably the best steel available for a true Katana. Characteristics include a hard, reliable battle edge, which will hold its edge and stay sharp for longer than any other steel used for swordsmithing. Furthermore, the blade encapsulates good resilience and elasticity, as one would expect from any combat functional blade.
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 sword’s blade.
The beautiful, vivid green lacquered hardwood scabbard and high quality brass & zinc alloy sword fittings, complement the green sword color scheme very nicely. And the hardwood, wrapped with synthetic leather & polyester cord form a traditional aesthetic and effective Japanese Samurai handle grip.
This T10 sword is a high energy and busy artwork. It’s highly collectable, a pleasure to own and a formidable close quarters weapon of war to use.
