There are durable stainless steel katanas, and then there are ridculously durable stainless steel katana. This full-tang smaurai sword is probably the strongest stainless steel katana we carry.
Made from 420J stainless steel, this weapon features a true full-tang. Yes, that's right. The blade and tang are both made from the same piece of flawless steel. Unlike the typical half-rat-tail designs that you see from day to day, this tang is almost as thick as the blade, and actually forms the grip of the weapon.
The red hardwood grip is bolted securely into the tang with rugged brass bolts. An impact resistant blackened and cast metal tsuba (guard) protects the user's hands and adds a nice bit of balance to the weapon. Perhaps the flashiest thing about this sword though is the 24-karat gold hardware that adorn several portions of this weapon (particularly the area just south of the guard (the fuchi)).
This is a brilliantly designed weapon, perfect for showing off on a belt or just hanging it in the study as a sign of your sophisticated tastes in weapon. It can beat up just about any other stainless steel katana (although absolutely do not try to do this since this weapon is sold sharpened and will certainly cause death or maiment (is that a word?) if swung toward or around another human).
