SAMURAI SWORD FAQS
- What is the difference between a katana, wakizashi, and tanto?
A katana is the most common and longest samurai sword, traditionally used for battle. The wakizashi is a shorter companion sword often carried with the katana, while the tanto is a small, dagger-like blade used for close combat or ceremonial purposes. - What materials are samurai swords made from?
Our samurai swords are traditionally made from high-carbon steel, often with a layered construction technique known as Damascus, which creates a sharp and durable blade. The handles are usually crafted from wood. - Are samurai swords functional or purely decorative?
Many of BudK’s samurai swords are fully functional, designed for martial arts practice or cutting exercises, while others are created primarily for display. It’s important to check the product specifications to ensure the sword meets your intended use.
