The blade of the Musashi Katana (KTN1) is specially handmade and forged in the Japanese Nihonto tradition. This forging metheod mixed with high quality, high carbon Japanese steel makes it one of the most sharpest, strongest and flexible blades. The tsuka (handle) is genuine same' (ray skin) and the Tsuka Ito (handle wrap) is 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 Musashi Katana is forged using the Japanese Nihonto metheod and features a black matt finished saya and leather tsuka ito. The Musashi Japanese Katana can be completely disassembled for full maintenance. It is a fully functional Japanese katana, NOT a replica.
