1060 high carbon steel encapsulates both a high carbon as well as a high manganese content, which promote a hard, reliable cutting edge, along with the extremely desirable blade elasticity & resilience. This produces a hard, reliable and sharp cutting edge and importantly, you can be sure the blade and the edge will survive even the most violent combat.
The lacquered hardwood scabbard and battle quality sword fittings complement the weapon fittingly. And the hardwood, wrapped with leather & quality polyester cord form a traditional and very effective Japanese Samurai handle grip.
