FAQ

What is a tachi sword, and how is it different from a katana?

A tachi is typically worn edge-down and tends to have a deeper curve and a longer, more ceremonial look than many katana. This collection focuses on tachi-style mounts and profiles.

What does “full tang” mean on a tachi weapon?

Full tang means the blade steel continues through the handle as one piece. Buyers usually choose it for strength and long-term durability.

How do I choose between T10, 1095, Damascus, and tamahagane replica steel?

T10 is often picked for a crisp edge feel and consistency. 1095 is a simple high-carbon option many buyers trust. Damascus is chosen for visible layering/pattern. Tamahagane replica steel is mainly about replica styling and traditional-inspired presentation.

Are these tachi for sale sharpened and ready to use?

Most sword shops offer both display and functional options, and sharpness can vary by model. Use the product page “specs” section to confirm edge/sharpness before ordering.
