Traditional Crafted Bushido Katana Sword

Just like in a shot out, the two samurais come face to face ready with their hands ready on their Bushido katana sword. Both were braced, poised and ready to split the other with an immediate downward or up from underneath stroke, to settle the feud quickly, once and for all. As important as the movement of the blade can be, the blood spray spuirting from a severed body wound proclaim the winner; the only one who walked away.

The way of the Samurai and the Bushido katana sword stands for honor, loyalty, mastery of oneself and acceptance of death which is all part of the Bushido code. This is the way of life for the ultimate Japanese warrior. His swordsmanship was skilled and precise just like his blade as required by a striked doctrine which takes in both religions of Buddhism and Shinto. It spoke with a clear voice and with a wisdom and serenity much admired by the people of Japan then and now. Ultimately it was the epitome of self-discipline and grace.

Self-sacrifice as demonstrated by the act of sepukku, the purposeful suicide, was closely tied to the sense of pride and honor that bound the dedication of these warriors. So was the efficient and cool defense by the Bushido warrior as he registered the same detached but violent response to any who dared challenge him. With a Bushido katana sword in hand and Bushido principles to uphold, the Samurai presented a formidable threat.

Bushido katana swords can be found as display items or real working weapons and are still manufactured with the same care and respect forged two hundred years ago for the Samurai. Blades today are still clay tempered and hand forged using old techniques to create quality edges which was depended upon years ago. The Bushido katana sword is customarily the ultimate samurai sword and is known for its single edged slightly curved blade which is 23 inches long and fitted to a curved sheath. The tsuka handle is roughly one third of the total length and is fairly long as its meant to be held by both hands, normally cushioned with decorated animal skin to ensure grip and control.

Many times the sword has a hamon or visible temper line in the steel that features a hada which is a grain pattern. The guard which is also known as the hilt is minimal and can be square or round. The size of the sword in no way affects the aerodynamics of the blade singing towards its target in midair. A recess that extends the length of the blade is known as a bloodgroove which is a feature of some blades. Its objective hardly needs and explanation at all. The saya of the sword is often encased in wood and lacquer and then decorated with natural designs or other floral patterns. Like simialr objects which are meant to be worshipped it may come with a stand for displaying and a kit for cleaning the blade before it returns to its scabbard and rack.

Labeled battle-ready and considered to be flawless many Bushido katano swords today are tools of a warrior or an artist. Such craftsmanship hearkens back to a time when quality and philosophy, religion and violence were forged together in a brilliant flash of serious steel.
