OVERVIEW
The Akai Nami is a beautifully made katana that shows the rich history of Japanese sword-making. It is 103 centimeters long, with a blade that is 71 centimeters long. This strong sword weighs about 1.3 kilograms and has a blade width of 3.2 centimeters. Made from T10 steel, the blade is very hard, rated at 60 HRC, which means it can cut through iron without breaking.
The Akai Nami features a detailed XX-pattern on the blade, created using traditional handcrafting and eighteen grinding steps, giving it a sharp edge. The hilt is carefully wrapped in traditional cord, and the handle is made from solid wood with a nice lacquer finish. The copper tsuba is beautifully designed, making this katana not just a weapon but also a sign of skilled craftsmanship that has been part of Japanese sword-making for centuries.
