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.
Folded Steel: This blade had been folded eleven times, creating 2048 layers. This traditional sword forging method involves repeatedly heating, hammering and folding the swords steel. The effect of this work evens out and homogenises the carbon content, making for a stronger, more flexible blade.

Good sword for the price
Hi Jennifer,
We are happy to hear that you are happy with your sword, thank you for leaving a review, we really appreciate it!
Thanks - The American BladesPro Team
I received my katana a little over a month ago, and it has worked wonderfully. I had an issue with sheathing the sword at first, but with the help of the BladesPro support team I was able to remove the packaging that I Inadvertently lodged in the saya. The sword is slightly heavier than I am used too, but the length is short enough that I can sheath it comfortably. It hangs comfortably off of my belt, there were no blemishes on the steel when I received it, and it has a wonderful ‘swoosh’ when you strike with it. I am very pleased with the product.
Hi Hopkins,
It was a pleasure helping you with the issue with the saya and we are so happy to hear that it's working great for you now. Our team is always here to help. Enjoy the sword!
