Straight Bamboo Sword

The full tang blade is a T10 high carbon steel construct, which contains the highest carbon contents of all steels used for blade-smithing. Arguably the best steel for sword making, the cutting edge is very hard and reliable for battle purposes, along with good blade resilience one would expect from a high quality Japanese sword. 

Furthermore, the blade is genuine clay tempered. This ensures a clean, visibly defined tempered cutting edge with the core and spine of the blade left softer and more resilient. A technically advanced and difficult process to achieve. 

A beautiful, simple and sleek straight Japanese sword with the classic oriental aesthetic of bamboo.
