Historically, katana (刀 or かたな) were one of the traditionally made Japanese swords (nihontō) that were used by the samurai of ancient and feudal Japan.The katana is characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands.

The blade of this sword is made of Damascus folded steel 百炼花纹钢. It folded forged by 11 times, and 2048 layers of patterns(Jihada) are formed on the surface of the blade.The high-performance folded steel blade has very good toughness and does not deform when bent at 90 degrees.

FOLDED STEEL 百炼花纹钢
This means that the carbon steel is folded by 11 times to produce 2048 layers. The higher quantity of layers provides more unique and mystical hada patterns, which defines and displays the craftsman’s experience and knowledge of traditional metallurgy passed down from generation to generation. Only the utmost skilled bladesmiths (Toushyo) and polishers (Togi-shi) can bring out the beauty and life from the Shinsakuto live blade. During the forging process, all of the slags and impurities of the steel are burned off and folded forged to an uncompromised strength with an sharp cutting edge. The final carbon content is 1% and the hardness is an impressive HRC 55°on the Rockwell Scale. This high quality blade can easily cut through tatami straw mats or bamboo for Tameshigiri or Batto-do use.
