About Japanese
Katana Sword: The Japanese sword was known as the
Samurai sword all of the world , which is a kind of
superb weapon. The first metal sword was got from a
grave in Japan. From the 3rd to the 8th century, chinese
and Korean craftsman came over to Japan. Tachi developed

surprise attacks. After Japanese was defeated in the

About Handmade Sword: Real handmade swords have a wood
grain like pattern in the outer skin. It comes from
laminating many layers of steel to make the blade
flexible. The blade is made by starting with a piece of
hard steel to serve as the foundation of the sword. The
skin is often made of hundreds of layers of softer steel
that serve as a way to make the sword more flexible and
resistant against breaking. Next the sword is covered in
a ceramic like clay with just the cutting portion of the
blade exposed and heated and tempered . This results in
a very hard cutting edge on a flexible yet hard blade.
Then the blade is adorned with artwork like the
tsuba and handle and scabbard.
