Description

This Iai practice sword is manufactured in Gifu Prefecture which has historically been known as the workplace of the Japanese swords. The blade is handmade with the traditional technique of sand casting.

This sword is made by Izuminokami Kanesada famous swordsmith from Gifu Prefecture. As the blade was so well balanced, a lot of Samurai loved his sword. Kanesada made various kinds of blades with several Hamon patterns. The Hamon of this sword is called “Midareba”, the pattern like a big wave.

The sheath is made by a special technique “SAMEGAWA-TOGIDASHI”. This is the technique where the shark skin (actually the skin of a ray) is covered on the sheath and polished until becomes a smooth surface. Then cashew or urethane is coated and polished again which requires time and patience to finish.

This sword should be used not only for Iai practice but also for decoration in your living.
