Description

Item Specs

The Enkai features a Forge Folded Lamination with a traditional geometry. The design of the Katana has been inspired by the swords of the Edo period. Swords from this period were as much status symbol as they were weapon, and some were quite ornate. The Enkai's elegant fittings hearken back to that time. The sword also features medium niku, so it's a stylish and functional piece that could've taken on armor then and would cut bamboo easily now.

This blades' medium Niku along the Shinogiji allows for heavier and harder cutting. The Niku keeps the blade thicker so the cuts will not be as swift and clean as a lighter blade, but the the Ha will keep its cutting edge longer. The sword is appropriate for heavy Tameshigiri with tatami and bamboo.

Well Made Katana	December 5, 2010
Reviewer: Anonymous Person

Well put together. One can see clearly the niku on the blade. Hada is visible as well. One thing of note is the tsuka shape. It is pleasing and ergonomic, unlike many other production katana. The say is tight fit and there is no rattle whatsover. If you are looking for a katana with niku, I would highly recommend the Enkai.
