During the World War II, the Japanese sword that was used by the army is the Gunto. This type of sword was produced after the samurai era and was worn by officers of the Imperial Japanese army. The demand for handmade swords are declining and the need for mass production of this so-called weapon is gradually increasing. Thus, to satisfy the demand for the production, they recruited people with little or no knowledge of the craft of handmade weaponry. Moreover, shortcuts in creating these type of weapons were adopted by tempering the blade in oil rather than water.
Absolutely love it I'll definitely be continuing my collection

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword 1060 Carbon Steel With Blue Blade |
Well packed and quickly shipped. Well fitted. Not as sharp as I expected from some of the reviews I read, but sharper than the general run of blades online.
I was surprised that there was a burr on the tsuba edge, but to get a simple iron tsuba I would put up with a lot more than that. Well pleased.
