The Samurai Sword's unique blend of beauty, performance, and historical significance makes it an unparalleled acquisition for martial artists, collectors, historians, or anyone with an appreciation for fine craftsmanship and cultural heritage.ġ. The handle, traditionally wrapped, offers both a secure grip and a touch of elegance. Balance is at the core of its design, making it feel lightweight and easily maneuverable in the hand. The Samurai Sword features a full-tang construction, reinforcing its durability and longevity. Its distinctive curved design is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional, enabling swift and powerful strikes. Its blade is meticulously crafted using time-honored blacksmithing methods, resulting in a razor-sharp edge that delivers exceptional cutting performance. I bow to the masters at Hanbon Forge for the fantastic and incredible craftsmanship.The Samurai Sword, also known as the Katana, is a magnificent embodiment of Japanese tradition, strength, and artistry. They are now my pride and joy and will be cherished forever. The first picture is the stand as advertised on their website, followed by my version (yes, I got the bottom rail upside down but I like it), followed by the blades mounted in the stand and the last two pictures are of the engravings on the blades. The Saya has a black matte finish on it, and I wanted the stand to sort of match them. I have attached pictures of these beautiful works of art. All 3 of the blades are hand sharpened, tempered folded steel clay, with a dragon theme the blades on one side have an engraved dragon (as does the Saya) and on the other side has my name in Japanese. So, I purchased a wall mounted tri-blade stand, and customized Katana, Wakizashi, and Tanto. I decided, that if I was going to be replacing the lost Katana, that I wanted a complete set. Being on a limited income it took me almost 4 months total (saving, etc.) to be able to afford them. Jump forward 40 years and I ran across HanBon Forge and I saw just what I wanted. Ever since then I've been searching for the "right" fit to replace it. Some 40 years ago I had a faux ivory carved dragon handle Katana, evidently someone else decided they liked it better than I did. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to your craft. I am beyond satisfied with the custom Nodachi you have created for me and will definitely be ordering from you again in the future. Overall, my experience with Hanbonforge has been exceptional. He was very attentive to my requests and always available to answer any questions I had. He was extremely nice and helpful throughout the whole process, from the initial consultation to the final delivery of the sword.
I was also impressed by the exceptional customer service provided by Mr. The engravings on blade and saya are simply beautiful. The fittings are absolutely stunning and complement the overall design of the sword perfectly. The saya is also well-crafted and fits the blade perfectly. The tsuka is tightly wrapped with the ito and the menuki fit comfortably in my hand.
The hamon is simply exquisite and the boshi is perfectly executed. The blade is beautifully crafted and has a fantastic curve, just like I requested. As a sword enthusiast, I had high expectations for this sword, but you have surpassed them all and the price to quality ratio of your products is unmatched by anything I’ve seen. I just received my custom Nodachi and I am completely blown away by the quality of your workmanship.
