Attributes of the Weapon:
Blade: The blade of the sword has been hand made with High Carbon Steel. The Carbon has been hammered out through the blade so that it has a universal hardness throughout the entire blade. A Bo-Hi has been added to the top of the blade to even out the weight and give audible feedback. The sword comes full tang with an O-Kissake.
Saya: The Saya of the sword is wooden with a white gloss finish. Wrapped around the upper half of the scabbard is a black cotton Sage-o and golden Kurigata. The Koi-guchi is hardened bull horn.
Tsuba: The Tsuba of the sword begins with a bronze blade collar (Habaki). The actual guard is blackened steel in the double ring design, the exact same design as the great Musashi. Each side of the guard is secured by a bronze spacer (Seppa), this fitting is only found on hand crafted swords.
Tsuka: The Fuchi is blackened steel with a complex pattern. The Tsuka is constructed with a wooden core with a Ray skin Same and cotton Ito cord wrap. One each side of the Tsuka are two copper Menuki. Two bamboo Mekugi secure the tang of the sword. The Kashira is blackened copper with the same pattern as the Fuchi.
