The newest Folded
katanas from Paul Chen, The Tori Katana, is built around a Swedish
powdered steel blade that is full tang and has been double pinned to the 11"
rosewood handle. The brown matte leather is tied in the traditional manner
over black rayskin. A brown sagao accents the chocolate brown Martial Arts
finished saya. All fittings and tsuba are blackened steel.
Individual
characteristics of each blade.
SH-6007-LFF-Feature the
same geometry as those of the XL but incorporate deeply cut grooves (bo-hi)
to reduce the weight of the blade while retaining most of its strength and
cutting ability. This weight reduction makes for a quicker sword that is
well adapted for multiple cuts in lighter targets.
SH-6007-XFF-Designed strictly for
competitive cutting, our XL katana blades incorporate the geometry,
strength, weight and profile needed for successful cuts on substantial
targets. Featuring differentially heat-treated blades and a narrow edge
angle, these wide blades will reward good technique with clean cuts and
excellent durability.
SH-6007-KFE-This katana
blade embodies the
classical design elements of the most prolific sword design in history.
With its strong Shinogi Zukuri shape the accentuates the differential
heat treatment, these blades are traditionally proportioned to appeal to
the collector but they will also perform well in general cutting of hard
or soft targets.
SH-6007-IGE,
IGG, IGC These un-edged training
blades provide safe drawing for the beginning practitioner of the 450 year
old art of Iaido. Forged from stainless steel, these tempered blades are
not only maintenance free but more importantly provide the correct
weight and balance needed for the rigors of repetitive drawing and sword
motion practice. Each blade has a deeply cut groove (bo-hi) to provide
audible feedback when the sword is properly swung.
