Tachi katana, cold steel



The tachi was the sword of the samurai before it evolved into the katana after the first mongol invasion of japan. The tachi was a lighter, smaller, and more graceful sword, with a deeper curvature and intended to be used one-handed. Its fittings were beautiful and very distinctive. After the katana had been in use for some time, there was a period in japan of returning to the ancient samurai of before the 14th century. A style of katana developed with the classic tachi fittings, the distinctive tsuba, fuchi and kashira fittings, and the saya fittings, forming a beautiful subset of the katana. The cold steel tachi kantana is a representation of these unique and beautiful swords with its forged folded damascus blade and beautiful gold plated fittings.
