Miyamoto Musashi, arguably the most famous
swordmaster in Japanese history, fought more
than 60 duels before retiring and writing his
famous treatise on swordplay, the "Book of Five
Rings". Musashi was well above average height
and his Daito (long sword) was made to match his
size. Development of the two-sword style of
swordplay, with the Daito (long sword) and
Wakizashi being used together, is credited to
Musashi.
The Hanwei
reproduction of the Musashi Daito is faithful to the original down to the
famous double-ring iron tsubas. This is the
companion piece to the
Miyamoto Musashi Wakizashi. The Musashi
Katana is mounted in black, with subtle copper
inlays in the saya, and the tsuka-ito is in
leather over ray skin. The blade is hand-forged
in high-carbon steel and is edge-tempered using
the traditional clay tempering method, resulting
in a distinct hamon. Edge hardness is 60HRC,
back hardness 40HRC. The grip is double-pegged
to the tang for safety. Supplied with a
protective cloth bag.
