OVERVIEW
The Kage no Tachi, or 'Dragon Source', is a carefully made katana that shows the rich history of Japanese sword-making. Made from T10 steel, this sword goes through 18 steps of manual grinding, creating a special pattern called hamon that cannot be copied. With a hardness of 60 HRC, it is very strong and can cut through iron without getting dull.
The katana is 103 cm long, with a blade that is 71 cm long and 3.2 cm wide, weighing about 1.4 kg. Its handle is covered with real sharkskin for a good grip, and the fittings are made from pure copper, showing great skill and care. The Kage no Tachi is not just a weapon; it represents the lasting art of samurai sword-making and the spirit of the katana.
