Hon-sanmai-gitae
With iron as the backbone and steel as the blade sandwiched between two layers of iron, the blade is folded and forged with a soft iron back and high carbon hard blade Made of steel, the entire blade combines hardness and softness, increasing its toughness, shock absorption, and fracture probability compared to Sanmai-gitae.
Itame-Hada
This is the most common type of hada pattern. A pattern of annual rings with an irregular and incomplete oval shape. A particularly large pattern is called o-itame. This type of hada pattern can be seen in the Soshu-den
Soshu-den works of the famous blacksmith Masamune and the works of the
Hoki province (Tottori and Shimane prefectures). A tightly forged itame or ko-itame hada is often seen on the works of the Yamashiro (Kyoto) smiths of the Kamakura period; particularly fine, well-forged works are referred to as nashiji-hada (Japanese pear skin).
