Katana 刀 is a type of samurai sword whose origin dates back to around the 15th century AD. A katana has a curved blade, just like a saber. Handle (tsuka) with oval cross-section and guard (tsuba) depicting oriental symbols. The length of the katana blade starts from about 60 cm. The samurai wore the katana tucked behind his kaku-obi belt, blade up, along with the Wakizashi short sword, so that he could react to a sudden attack from the enemy directly from the scabbard. The pair of katana and wakizashi swords were called daishō and were the symbol of the samurai class. A set of two daishō swords became standard equipment for samurai. The long katana was used for fighting in open spaces, while the short wakizashi or tantō was used for fighting in confined spaces, or for ritual suicide called sepp

Tip shapes (kissaki)

The katana can be disassembled and any part can be replaced according to your wishes - we recommend to buy a set of tools and accessories

How to take care of a katana and what not to do with it....

in general, all activities except for traditional chopping test techniques, which involve chopping into special mats

Cutting branches, trees and bushes: for this activity people have developed other tools such as axes or machetes.

Chopping, or swordplay with another sword: destructive damage to the blade of a samurai sword - samurai avoided any direct contact with the enemy to avoid damaging the blade. The repair was long and expensive.

Nnever wear a sharp samurai sword with the blade exposed in public: Always keep your sword in the Saye (scabbard). In Germany and other EU countries, this is even an obligation prescribed by gun law.

Never insert a dirty blade into the sayi: If you are performing chopping tests on fruit, clean and preserve the blade immediately after chopping, otherwise the blade will rust and oxidize.

Never leave your sword in a damp place such as a porch, shed, cellar or conservatory: This is certainly not the treatment this traditional weapon deserves. Always clean the blade after use, brush with oil and store the sword in a dry place.
