The vast majority of modern katana and wakizashi are composed of a single steel. The kobuse type is made using two steels, which are called hagane (edge steel) and shingane (core steel). Steel of different materials is forged and welded together to hammer the basic shape of the sword. This allows the overall blade to have a higher toughness and absorb a lot of impact. Reducing the possibility of breaking or bending to some extent. Makes the blade not only has high hardness, but also has super toughness. Damascus Folded Steel: In the forging process , the most useful process is the folding, where the metals are forge welded, folded, and welded again, as many as 24 times(15 times is the best). The folding removes impurities and helps even out the carbon content, while the alternating layers combine hardness with ductility to greatly enhance the toughness. The less impurities, the harder and sharper the blade will be. We have done cutting tests on the blades. it can cut bamboo(young bamboo tree), grass mattings and slice paper(The blade should be tilted at 45 degrees). Clay Temper: To maximize both the cutting edge and the resilience of the sword spine, a technique of differential heat-treatment is used. In this specific process, referred to as differential hardening or differential quenching, the sword is painted with layers of clay before heating, providing a thin layer or none at all on the edge of the sword, ensuring quick cooling to maximize the hardening for the edge. A thicker layer of clay is applied to the rest of the blade, causing slower cooling. This creates softer, more resilient steel, allowing the blade to absorb shock without breaking.

A 3 &A 12 Tsubas. I had ordered these two Tsubas for a couple of project swords I’m working on. When I received the order I found that one of the Tsubas were incorrect. I contacted the Wang group and explained the situation. They replied back to me the next day with sincere apologies and let me know that they were right then mailing me the correct item and to keep the wrong item as well. Great attention to detail in solving my problem. I was very pleased with the actual Tsuba I received.
Lightning fast shipping, well packaged, beautiful, usable sword, if desired, workmanship is outstanding, quality over the top, very very pleased with my purchase, and sellers honestly and outstanding workmanship , a pleasure to own a sword from this seller, don't hesitate, buy yours today, I'm so glad I did. Would buy again, and will tell my friends, a super value over other swords offered on Ebay, it's condition is so well made, and with quality unheard of in today's world, thank you.
Item arrived quickly although the box was damaged which led to some damage to the sword inside. It was minimal and no fault of the seller. Otherwise, the sword arrived in good shape, sharp and functional and am pleased with the sword and quality of the product especially for the price. I did contact the seller about the shipping damage (again, aware it is not their fault and called this out) and their response was very quick and helpful.
