1060 high carbon steel encapsulates both a high carbon as well as a high manganese content, which both promote a hard, reliable cutting edge, along with 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 dark sword scabbard & handle material close seamlessly together, forming a flowing curved sword shape and what looks like a stick or staff. The hardwood handle acts as a simple, sturdy and maintenance free handle grip, which is not only effective for combat, but also presents in a clean traditional form.
This shadow Katana is a simplistic work of art. It’s highly collectable, a pleasure to own and a formidable close quarters weapon of war.
