HAND SHARPENING

Description:

SL1322 is a katana with a shinogi zukurigeometry. Its blade is made of folded 1095 high carbon steel. The blade has no groove and the folding of the blade during forging produces a very distinct and beautiful raindrop pattern. This is different from the appearance of the usual folded steel which has a wavy hada. The hada on this blade looks like irregularly-shaped ripples.

This hand-forged Japanese katana is crafted using traditional methods, featuring a clay-tempered blade with a differential hardening process for enhanced durability and sharpness. The flexible spine and high-quality 1095 folded steel ensure a perfect balance between strength and flexibility, making it a true masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship.
