Quick Overview

This is a new one for Generation2. They have had allot of people ask them to come out with a katana that strong enough for competition but with a traditional style. And they listened, but they added a few high end items to it to really catch your attention. Many of you have been with them long enough to now how they pay attention to detail and the fit and finish.



Blade Length: 29"
Blade Thickness: 1/4"
Handle Length: 11"
Overall Length: 40"

First the Handle ... Habaki: Steel, with a burnished copper finish ... O-seppa: Brass ... Seppa: Copper
Tsuba: Steel, with a Black Finish ... Fuchi: Water Buffalo Horn ... Kashira (Band at the bottom of the handle above the Tsuba): Blackened Steel... Ito (Wrapping): Brown Suede ... REAL Same, Black ... Peg: 2 Bamboo Pins ... Menuki: Copper with "Floral" design.
The tang has been significantly increased in size due to customer demand. This creates a lighter feeling, faster sword.

Second the Blade ... Tempered high carbon blade with a Real Hamon line. The Hamon is not acid dipped as with most so you can see it, but as you can barely see on the picture to the left at just the right angle you can see the difference just above the edge, where the blade darkens.
The blade is 10/60 carbon steel and comes with a full double bohi and nice slanted spear tip. The RC Factor on the Edge was 58/59 but is now 60, and along the back the RC Factor is 40.

Lastly the Saya ... Full wood saya, black lacquered with the Koiguchi / Kurikata / Kojiri made from Water Buffalo Horn
