Munetoshi Handmade Competition Performance Cutter Katana Sword 1075 Spring Steel These series of swords are designed and built with superb handling and cutting ability in mind, which is why I started with designing the habaki. Overall Length: 39.75", Blade Length: 28" (Nagasa), Handle Length: 10.5", Weight w/o Scab: 2 Lbs 7 Ozs, Balance Point: 5.5" from the Tsuba Blade:The blade is made with very tough 1075 spring steel which has a superior heat treatment.This is so that the user does not have to worry so much about the sword bending or taking a set from a bad cut, especially on hard or thick dense targets. Saya: The saya of the sword is wooden with a black high gloss finish and bull horn koiguchi. The sageo is black cotton tied over a wooden kurigata with golden shitedome. Tsuka: The habaki is a Munetoshi custom design from Jake of the Cutting Mechanics. The tsuka has very tight hinerimaki using black synthetic ito over genuine white samegawa ray skin. * Please note that specs will vary slightly from sword to sword. Sword stand sold separately.
