Custom Samurai Sword – Hand Forged T10 High Carbon Steel Clay Tempered Blade (Katana / Wakizashi / Tanto, Sashikomi or Hadori Polish)

This custom samurai sword is hand forged from premium T10 high carbon steel, a steel known for its excellent hardness, durability, and edge retention. In terms of performance and carbon content, T10 steel is comparable to 1095 high carbon steel, making it a popular choice for traditionally styled Japanese sword blades.

Each blade is crafted using a traditional clay tempering process, which creates differential hardening along the edge. This technique not only improves cutting performance but also produces a distinctive and natural hamon (temper line), highlighting the beauty of the blade.

This sword is available in three classic Japanese blade sizes to suit different preferences:

• Katana – The iconic long samurai sword, known for its balance and cutting power.

• Wakizashi – A medium-length companion sword, versatile and easy to handle.

• Tanto – A compact short blade, prized for its precision and strength.

To further customize the appearance of the blade, two traditional polishing styles are available:

• Sashikomi Style Polish – A polishing method that reveals the hamon naturally and preserves the authentic character of the blade.

• Hadori Style Polish – A polishing style that enhances and highlights the hamon with a brighter, more defined contrast.

Each sword is individually forged and finished, ensuring that every blade is unique. Combining traditional craftsmanship with quality materials, this custom samurai sword is ideal for collectors, martial arts practitioners, and enthusiasts who appreciate the artistry and heritage of Japanese blades.
