Nagamaki was composed by me, which makes it virtually impossible to find another identical copy to compose I used : - New long handle covered with leather braid in red lacquer color - New parts with a nature motif, seen in the photo - A used blade adding a pinch of uniqueness to it - A used old tsuba adding a piece of history and an uncommon look to the sword (the tsuba is over 15 years old) I was planning to add a habaki but the blade was too wide :) High Carbon Steel, sharp Nagamaki is a Samurai Sword, used against infantry as well as cavalry.

The sword is well balanced, its weight is only 1KG, suitable for training cutting power
