Collectors of Japanese weapons are usually quite knowledgeable in the history of samurai swords and knives. Dating back to the 1400s, the katana, a Japanese sword, was considered much more than a weapon. Often referred to as the "Soul of the Samurai", the Nodachi was extremely connected to the Samurai Sword.

A Samurai Sword is Family

Japanese tradition and honor run deep in Asian governments and communities. So respected were the katana that they were treated as a living, breathing being in many homes. This is because the Bushido teaches that the katana is literally the samurai's soul. It was not unusual to have this sword named and welcomed as part of the family. No wonder that the Japanese Bushido Dragon Samurai Nodachi Sword is one of the most sought after collector items of all the Japanese weapons.

Swordsmithing

A Sword Maker of international reputation was the first to craft this particular katana that only adds further to the appeal of this blade to those who observe this work of art within the midst of a museum setting. Swordsmithing remains a creative practice in Japan today with the Japanese Bushido Dragon Samurai Nodachi Sword being one of the most honored. A swordsmith will diligently work to make this type of samurai as close perfect as possible.

Special Qualities of the Japanese Bushido

High quality forged steel make up the 67 inch curved blade that gleams brightly among any sword collection. The sword handle is magnificently trimmed in gold tone metals. Carefully woven in and around the handle is a detailed traditional dragon that adds spirit and charm to this amazing piece. A matching red trimmed sheath completes the sword's distinguished look.

History of the Samurai Sword

Many times collectors will place a smaller sword, known as a wakizashi, next to the Japanese Bushido Dragon Samurai Nodachi Sword, since the two are usually possessed as a pair called a daisho which means "large and small".

Many centuries ago, the presentation of the daisho was made to the male child upon his thirteenth birthday when he was then considered a samurai and he was then issued an adult name. The wakizashi was referred to as the "honor blade". Never would a warrior surrender his wakizashi and although weapons were not allowed in many homes and living spaces, one was not asked to remove their "honor blade".

There are many other Japanese weapon models that are much older and offer even more interesting study. The religion and history surrounding Japanese weapons are intriguing and powerful. Once you study the background associated with different types of swords, knives and read of the battles fought and won, you will feel the energy that has become a part of the Japanese nation.
