With an exemplary balance of sharpness, strength, weight, and practicality, the blade is solid, extending to the hilt to ensure maximum impact resistance. Manufactured and sharpened manually according to the molds of traditional katanas from feudal Japan, each piece is assembled with precision to avoid any wobbling during handling.
