More than 2,600 years ago the city of Longquan was known as the "City of Treasured Swords" for their precision hand forged swords. No edged weapon in history has ever been surrounded with such mystique and tradition like the Japanese sword. As the "Soul of the Samurai" these swords are forged in almost a religious like act to be the most prized gift a warrior could receive. Ryumon and Masahiro swords are hand forged by Master Craftsmen with years of experience from Longquan. These masters combine modern knowledge with traditional secrets to produce superior quality swords with enhanced durability, sharpness and exquisite craftsmanship.

The blades are hammered out, folded and hammered again, up to 12 times, to produce a blade that has a Rockwell Hardness of 57 on the edge and 45 on back of the blade. Creating a blend that holds an edge, resists chips and marks but is durable, flexible and does not rebound when struck. This hand forging process is extremely labor intensive requiring long hours of effort by a skilled craftsman. The quality of these swords is phenomenal in detail but limited in supply. You will cherish these swords as other warriors have for over 25 centuries. Razor Sharp!

Reviewer: DANNY MORRIS
I JUST WANT TO TELL ALL OF THE READERS THAT THIS SWORD IS LISTED FOR 400 DOLLARS ON OTHER SITES! NO LESS THAN THAT EITHER! I DON'T OWN THIS "YET", BUT I'M NOT GONNA BE STUPID AND NOT GET IT! IF YOU LIKE SWORDS AND/OR PRACTICE THE ARTS OF KENDO, YOU ARE CRAZY FOR NOT GETTING IT! SOME OF YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW EXPENSIVE HAND FORGED KATANAS ARE!

Reviewer: Shoti
This is one of the few true happy ending stories I have had in purchasing swords over the internet. I usually get an inexpensive one with decent steel and polish/sharpen/balance the blade myself, and completely re-wrap and re- mount the hardware in order to get a sword that is remotely functional. I decided to take a chance with this sword, and have been amazed for the several months that I've had it with the quality of the materials and crafstmanship of this sword. It is razor sharp, and the quality of this sword is at least equal to many of the swords I own that were several times more expensive. This is a "real" sword at a fantastic price! I'm gonna buy a couple more!!

Reviewer: stan
It was not the same as the picture, and the guard is loos and can not be tighten. But still it is a nice sword. The price in a catalog was $50.00 dollars less, they need to adjust their prices!.
