Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is full-tang construction?
Full tang means the blade’s metal extends as an unsharpened tang through the entire length of the handle, secured by bamboo pins through aligned holes. This creates maximum structural integrity between blade and handle.
Why is full tang important?
Full tang is the foundation of blade-to-handle strength. Partial tangs (rat-tail or welded) create weak points where the blade can separate from the handle. Full tang eliminates this failure point.
Are all your samurai swords full tang?
Yes. Every sword in our catalog features full-tang construction. This collection specifically highlights this standard for collectors who prioritize verified structural integrity.
How can I verify full tang?
The traditional method is removing the handle to inspect the tang. On our swords, the handle can be removed by carefully tapping out the bamboo mekugi pin to reveal the full-length tang beneath.
