In order for the Japanese swords to maintain its sharpness, its edge must be hard while the 'body' of the sword must also be flexible in order to absorb heavy blows and shocks without breaking. The way to create a metal that is both hard and flexible at the same time was figured out centuries ago and is still in use today. It's called differential hardening or Heat-tempering.

This complicated process consist of a thick layer of claymixture that is applied to the spine side of the blade and the layer is thinned the closer it gets to the edge of the sword. By heating the blade to the appropriate temperature,the smith will remove the blade from the heat source and immediately immersed in a trough of water. This process changes the composition of the metal and makes the edge of the blade more hard than the body.

This japanese sword has a HRC of 40 on the back and around 58-60 on the edge.

Every stroke of the polishing stone brings out the exquisite grain and beauty of this formidable metal. The careful work of master craftsmen’s hands accents each line in the blade and enhances the Hamon. This finely balanced weapon is available with Hi for the practice of Iaido, or without Hi for Tameshigiri.
