The blade of the Masayoshi Japanese Katana is specially handmade and forged in the Japanese Nihonto tradition. This forging method with high quality, high carbon Japanese steel makes it one of the sharpest, strongest and flexible blades with bo-hi (groove). The tsuka (handle) is genuine same (ray skin) and the Tsuka Ito (handle wrap) is genuine black leather, also available in brown leather. The Menuki, Fuchi and Kashira (sword mounting/fittings) are all handmade with 92.5% silver. The oxidization process will create an antique look.
The Masayoshi Katana is forged using the Japanese Nihonto metheod and features a bo-hi and leather tsuka ito. The Masayoshi Japanese Katana can be completely disassembled for full maintenance. It is a fully functional Japanese katana, not a replica.
