Detailed Video Specs

If a sword is indeed the soul of a Samurai, it is fitting for his sword to represent his ultimate goal: flexibility to all situations and the strength to pursue correct actions. This is the ideal of these legendary warriors.

Please note that the sword is constructed from 1060 carbon steel.

Features

Blade: The blade of the sword is constructed from 1060 high carbon steel. The Hamon and curve of the blade have been authentically created. The curve of the blade has been created as a result of the forging and tempering process. When the blade is quenched the sword is covered with a clay solution, except for the edge of the blade. The blade is then heated and quenched in water drawn from the spring of Longquan. Since the Ha cools much more quickly than the rest of the blade the molecules in the steel expand and force the softer steel to fold back.
The blade is full tang and comes razor sharp.
Saya: The Saya of the sword has been constructed from hard wood with a high gloss black lacquer finish. The Sageo is black cotton tied over a brass kurigata. The Koiguchi has been hardened due to lacquering.
Tsuba: The Habaki of the sword is a one piece brass construction and serves to keep the tsuba in place. Two brass Seppas secure the Tsuba and keep it from moving or rattling. The actual tsuba has been constructed from blackened iron in a sukashi (cut out) design of bamboo branches.
Tsuka: The Fuchi is another blackened iron bamboo branch. The Tsuka is wooden with a white Same (ray skin) under black cotton Ito. The Menuki are bamboo branches. The Kashira is another blackened iron bamboo fitting. The Tsuka features double bamboo Mekugi to secure the nakago.

Christmas Gift Success	December 13, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Canada

After researching swords online at Sword Buyer`s Guide, I decided on this Katana as a Christmas gift and used the site to find SwordnArmory, as they ship to Canada.
I was looking for a sword that will function as decoration (but also slightly functional as I`m sure my gift recipient will not be able to avoid swinging it around a few times before displaying it!) This sword is beautiful, came well packaged and arrived very quickly. I am very pleased.

Musashi Handmade Bamboo Katana	March 11, 2011
Reviewer: oz from hamburg, Germany

If one is looking for an inexpensive katana, this is the one to get. There is a number of reviews for this katana on the web, that say so and I do agree. In short, it looks even better in real life, than on the pictures. The Hamon is beautifull. It is not as sharp as it could be, but sharp enough. Last but not least - this shop is great! Detailed product discription, precise order and shipping information, fast handling. Could not be better by german standards.
Thanks!

handmade Bamboo katana	January 6, 2011
Reviewer: brian A. from winter springs, FL United States

First i will say this the sword looks beautiful and craftsmanship is top notch. Everything fits tight and has no rattle.
The blade is decieving. It looks to nice to be this sharp! I have another katana i spent more on and it isn't even close to cutting as good as the Musashi.
I order it on christmas eve and recieved it on the 30th of dec. I could not be happier

Bam!	November 7, 2010
Reviewer: Maynar from Surrey, BC Canada

This is my fourth Musashi, and I gotta say: they just keep getting better and better.

The wrap alternates these days, and it's tighter than ever before. The kashira does not need glueing, boshi is visible now, what's not to love? Best $74 I ever spent on a sword.

I can't wait to see if Musashi can get a geometric yokote under the $100 price point.

On that day, I will celebrate!
