High carbon steel
samurai swords- T10 steel katanas
You want a more ‘traditional’ forged katana
in a mid price range ? Than you should consider one of the samurai swords listed
here in this high carbon steel section.
The biggest differences with his little brother (the 1060
steel sword) are the steel, treatment of the steel and the polish. The
Jewel forge took T10 steel to construct these swords and they used the
traditional clay-tempering process, which creates the Hamon. Once again,
fittings, ito and sageo were imported from Japan.
The first stages of the polishing process were done by
machine, while the final stages were done by hand to guarantee a smooth
mirror finish.
