Fully Hand Forged Japanese Samurai Katana Sword

 Fully Hand Forged Japanese Samurai Katana Sword

 

 

The Japanese swords of the Imperial Series have proven, since their initial introduction many years ago, to be quite popular with many people. However some people who want a battle ready sword but hope to find one at a affordable price . This new SHIRASAYA Series addresses this problem directly.

 High Carbon Steel has omitted the expensive mirror polishing used on the Imperial swords to create a new series of Japanese swords with a more practical finish. The Shirasaya Series are very handsome in their own right and share the same steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their more traditional  Imperial counterparts.

Like the Imperial swords, we tried to photograph each blade for our customers as many as possible, so you can get as accurate a feel as possible before purchase. Each blade is also priced based on the degree of craftsmanship achieved. If you’re in the market for a strong, good looking, reasonably priced Japanese sword we know you’ll be happy to own a Shirasaya Series Sword. It comes complete with a wooden case and a full cleaning and sharpening kit .

This is a sharpened battle ready samurai sword
