The blade of the Musashi Katana Sword (KTN1) is specially handmade and forged in the Japanese Nihonto tradition. This forging method mixed with high quality, high carbon Japanese steel makes it one of the sharpest, strongest and flexible blades around. The tsuka (handle) is genuine same' (ray skin) and the Tsuka Ito (handle wrap) is high quality black leather. The Menuki, Fuchi and Kashira (sword mounting/fittings) are all handmade with 92.5% silver. The oxidization process creates an antique look. The Thaitsuki Musashi Katana Sword comes with a black matte finished saya and silk sword bag. The Musashi Katana Sword can be completely disassembled for full maintenance. It is a fully functional Japanese katana sword, NOT a replica.
