The paragraph below is for our Bushi line of swords in general, please read the full description for this exact sword specifications.

For centuries, the Japanese katana came to function not only as a warrior weapon but as a symbol of the Bushi, the Japanese warrior class known as the Samurai. In the mid-price range, the Bushi Modern Forge-Folded swords are ideal for those who admire and appreciate traditional Japanese ethics. Our Bushi class unites meticulous craftsmanship with modern metallurgical techniques to create blades that clearly exhibit the traditional Hada and Hamon. The tri-steel blades (1095/1085/1060) are forge-folded eight to ten times, hand-forged to shape, clay-tempered and machine-polished to a brilliant finish. It is this reflection of a long-established authentic process that gains these weapons an appreciation from sword enthusiasts at all levels.

This particular sword is called, "The Soul Of The Samurai Musashi". It is a fully functional forged high carbon steel blade. The Carbon has been hammered out through the blade so that it has a universal hardness throughout the entire blade. A Bo-Hi has been added to the top of the blade to even out the weight and give audible feedback. The sword comes full tang with an O-Kissake.

Good sword for its price

Seems to be a sturdy sword; its not as sharp as I thought it would be its dull near the hilt and gradually becomes sharper to the tip; and the sometimes the sword doesn't want to go all the way in the scabbard. Other than that its a good sword for its price.
