Tachi Sword For Sale

Tachi sword for sale.

The Japanese Tachi sword, the early predecessor to the Uchigatana or “striking Katana”, was by far the most popular sword between the years 900 and 1596. Distinguished by its often highly curved longsword blade, these Japanese long swords were designed more as a sabre sword, often wielded from horseback, they undisputedly produced superior cutting and slashing blows, compared to the more modern Katana.

The most valuable part of any sword however is its blade, with this 1060 steel sword blade certainly forming a high quality, and lethal foundational core to this true sword saber.

1060, a modern, highly-refined, medium-carbon steel, encapsulating both a relatively high carbon and manganese content, along with other trace elements. It’s well known for its almost perfect balance of good blade strength, hardness, toughness, edge-holding capacity, as well as renowned elasticity and excellent resilience, with very similar characteristics to a spring steel sword blade. 

1060 carbon steel is without a doubt, one of the most versatile steels available, and arguably the best sword-making steel for a true combat sword. 

Completed with a hardwood, wrapped with copper scabbard, along with solid brass sword-fittings, and a hardwood, wrapped with copper handle, forming a very beautiful, traditional and effective Japanese Samurai handle grip.

This Tachi is deadly, and is executed with fine craftsmanship. It’s highly collectable, a treasure to own and a formidable war sword to use.
