Blade: The blade of this sword is hand forged and finished with 12 stages of polishing and sharpening. The steel used is high quality carbon steel, which is very pure, and keeps its edge very well.
Clay Tempered: The blade has been clay tempered in order to harden the cutting edge while still allowing the spine to remain flexible. The tempering process imbues the blade with a distinctive Hamon (blade pattern).

From start to finish, this has been a most pleasurable buying experience. The website gives clear specifications for each product, and detailed advice about legal ownership, through to potential delivery timescales and costs (through Customs). The tracking service was always accurate and up-to-date, and the sword arrived within the timescales expected. No matter how long it had taken through Customs (in my case, not a major issue), this item would have been well worth the wait! It is absolutely stunning, exactly as photographed - and it looks and feels "right". Sturdy, strong and sharp - and "beautiful". No hesitation in recommending BladesPro UK, as a caring and helpful seller, and in commending them on this Tanto. I'll be back soon!!!
