Description

Workshop sheet: 101 / 69 / 25 cm, 3.1 × 0.8 cm. Brass Type 98 fittings, copper habaki, samegawa, wood-core iron saya. Hamon is present. We do not invent a layer count or a hardness we have not measured.

Why this one costs more

  • Kobuse / jigane lamination costs more to forge than a monosteel T10 or folded bar.
  • Iron saya and full Type 98 brass set.
  • Samegawa and a finished hamon on a laminated blade.
