The Zotachi Katana Sword with scabbard is a sword made for a blind man. It is a straight edge sword which is 40 ¼ inch long, carbon steel blade. The handle and the scabbard are both made from wood.
A katana sword is normally a single edged sword; however, the term katana which sword collectors today see in catalogs and on the internet, have given the true meaning of the katana sword as appearing to be long straight swords, this is not correct. The word katana comes from the word sorus which means a curve of the blade.
So that means that the true meaning has been lost and the sword collectors should know that there is a difference between the two types of katana's. The straight katana swords, which were called chokuto, meaning straight bladed, was introduced by the Chinese by way of the Korean's.
This samurai sword has either a circular or a square hand guard, and a long slender hand grip which enables the user to use both hands if necessary. It has become very popular among Japanese assassins as well as by sword collectors all around the world, because of its sharp cutting ability, as well as its light weight.
The Japanese were among the first people to master the art of fast movement over any other development in the know world at that time. Ninja's were feared by everyone who had ever heard anything about them, even by their own culture. This is still true even in today's technological world.
The katana became popular during the Muromachi time approximately around 1392-1573, when conditions on the battle field required much quicker responses. Before this time katana's were worn in the traditional style like any other sword, with the edge facing downward, during this time the warriors started facing the blades upward, so that they could pull the sword and cut the enemy in one movement.
The katana was usually paired with a shorter sword known as the wakizashi or more commonly the shoto. However, it sometimes was paired with a tanto, an even smaller knife. All could be worn by the warriors of the army. When the katana was paired with a wakizashi they were a representation of personal honor and the social power of a samurai solder. Once they were paired this way it was call the daisho, and was usually worn by officers in the army.
True Japanese katana's were made by mixing both high carbon steel with low carbon steel so that the sword would be much stronger. This art of making steel was called Tamahagane, and was developed after learning that using just high carbon still often was more brittle and could break while in combat. Using just low grade carbon still resulted in the weapon becoming dull during battle. So the Japanese swordsmiths began mixing both metals together to form a true reliable and durable fighting sword.
