Blade construction is a high Manganese steel forge (spring steel), which is regarded by some as the best sword-smithing steel available, especially when considering blade elasticity and resilience, which is renowned for spring steel. There’s a good reason why car-springs are made from this steel and why local bush tribes make all of their jungle knives, machetes and weapons from the exact same steel.
Also a capable thrusting weapon, this curved blade sword is certainly a formidable compact weapon and a perfect choice for a tactical short sword.
