✨ My new Katana Samurai Sword! (English/German)

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemians, I bought a new real, hand-forged and sharp Katana (Samurai Sword) and in this article I want to show it to you. It´s the sword with the black grip and black Saya (scabbard) on the pictures below. The Katana has an impressively sharp blade, made of 1095 high carbon steel and the whole sword has a really geat quality. The grip is underlaid with real ray skin and wrapped with cotton.

[German] Hallo Steemianer, ich habe mir ein neues echtes, handgeschmiedetes und scharfes Katana (Samuraischwert) gekauft und in diesem Artikel möchte ich es euch zeigen. Es ist das Schwert mit dem schwarzen Griff und der schwarzen Saya (Schwertscheide) auf den Bildern unten. Das Katana hat eine eindrucksvoll scharfe Klinge aus 1095 Kohlenstoffstahl und das ganze Schwert hat eine sehr gute Qualität. Der Griff ist unterlegt mit echter Rochenhaut und umwickelt mit Baumwolle.

Maybe I will record some videos like this for you in summer too. :)

Can I call you now "Steem-Ninja" :-) ?

Haha, yes :)

How about "Steem-Samurai" ?

Wow... reminder of how I still wants to get my real Chinese sword

How much did you pay for this masterpiece?

Only 250€, this was a really nice catch, because normally you can´t find a handforged 1095 high carbon steel Katana with a real hamon under 500€...

I used to be obsessed with the Bugei catalog. Love swords :)

I bought it at samuraischwerter.de (it´s the John Lee Practical Katana), because they are in germany. When I buy in a shop from the USA, I have to pay very much delivering fees and customs duties. In this shop you can buy a really great Katana with real hamon and folded steel for only 200$: http://www.trueswords.com/musashi-folded-elite-midnight-kame-katana-p-6096.html
But if I would buy it from there with delivering to germany, I would pay over 400$ with the fees...

Hi @future24, you better be careful with that Katana, it looks like a lethal weapon.
