FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What steel is the blade made of?
The blade is 1045 high carbon steel, hand forged and heat tempered. Hardness is 52β54 HRC at the edge and 48β50 HRC at the spine.
Is the hamon real?
The hamon line on this blade is produced by hand polishing. It is a visual finish, not a clay-tempered hamon.
How do I maintain the blade?
Wipe dry after handling or use. Apply a light coat of choji or mineral oil along the full blade length before storing. Carbon steel will develop surface rust if left wet or unprotected β a minute of care after each session keeps the blade in condition indefinitely.
How do I know the quality is genuine?
Every sword is individually inspected and adjusted before leaving our California warehouse. We check edge geometry, fitment of all components, and the security of the mekugi pegs before packing. If anything is not right, it does not ship.
