Wool iron grass steel forging Detail:
Unlike most of today's patterned steel swords that are made of finished steel, the production of grass steel swords requires one more important step, that is, "steelmaking".
In the traditional steelmaking method, there is a "steel frying method", first using Longquan unique iron Yingsha refining out of pig iron, and then use the pig iron melting, decarburization. The degree of decarburization can become iron or steel, and then made into swords. Because "frying" and "grass" harmonize, and the appearance of the refined steel is rough, so Longquan locally known as "grass steel".

Notes:
- The display stand and packing box aren't included.
- Our products are 100% handmade, so specification varies slightly from sword to sword. We appreciate your understanding.
- All our katana swords are hand forged by swordsmiths, the forging time about 7-15 days. For some high-performance swords may require longer hand forged processing time, depending on the difficulty of the craft.
Katanas are considered knives and governed as such by state laws, so it is perfectly legal. In the United States, you must be 18 years old or have clear parental permission before owning a Katana.
Whether or not you can carry a katana outdoors depends on the state you live in, and we recommend that you check your state's laws for yourself. In general, it is forbidden to carry the sword openly in public, and it must be in a special bag or secure case.
Our Katanas are forged traditionally by craftsmen. The polishing is also done by a master so that the blade is sharp, and you can perform Tameshigiri cutting. We also offer a razor sharpening option where our master polisher will spend a few extra hours on your sword so that it cuts like a razor.
We deliver worldwide. However, we invite you to check in advance the conditions of purchase and import of weapons in your country. We cannot check the regulations of each country at every moment and modify our countries served according to that.
All our Katanas are full tang. We forge the swords by hand and the blade continues into the handle in order to provide better strength and resistance during practice, but also to respect the Japanese know-how.
Concerning the delays: It takes 7 to 21 days in general. It depends on the complexity of the craft.
