Real
Folded Japanese Swords
These Forge-Folded
Japanese swords are the perfect balance between the look and feel of a
real authentic Japanese sword on one side and the affordable price on
the other side.
A real
authentic Japanese samurai sword is made by an complex process of heating
the steel, hammering it flat, then folding it, then hammering it flat
again, and folding. The process of folding and hammering of these Huanuo
swords is reapeated about 9-11 times. All of the swords are forged by
traditional techniques which of course involves the differentially hardening
process. Fred Chen's Huanuo forge is offering a normal polish (half machine
and half handwork) and a traditional polished (with japanese stones) on
these blades. The traditional polished pieces can be found in the
Exclusive Samurai Sword Section.
