T10‑Hamon‑98‑Style‑Saber – WWII Reproduction Military Collectible Saber
Product Introduction
The T10‑Hamon‑98‑Style‑Saber is WWII‑era historical reproduction military saber, fully differentiated from shirasaya purist swords, gothic‑fantasy, floral‑art, cosmic‑nebula, ink‑wash‑art, botanical wakizashi and anime‑character replica swords. This military‑history‑oriented collectible adopts T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential‑tempering to produce authentic visible wave‑pattern hamon temper‑line. It is equipped with period‑accurate open‑work floral‑engraved brass military‑spec mounting hardware, tan‑brown woven ito tsuka with real ray‑fish samekawa lining, and solid hardwood dark‑brown vintage‑effect lacquer saya fitted with characteristic military metal hanging‑ring hardware, matched with original‑style blue‑brown mixed military tassel sageo. Target audiences include wwii military‑history artifact collectors, vintage‑military‑theme interior‑decor enthusiasts, historical‑reproduction‑sword shelf‑display and distinctive military‑heritage‑style decorative‑gift buyers.
The blade adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential temper‑treatment, generating authentic natural flowing wave‑pattern hamon temper‑line. Military‑saber modified shinogi‑zukuri blade profile without blood‑groove hi, functional yokote dividing‑line, period‑correct military‑style kissaki tip and factory light‑sharp finish. Hamon temper‑line and polished blade surface scratch easily; only static historical‑display and photo‑shooting are allowed. Heavy chopping and violent impact must be strictly prohibited to preserve military‑reproduction collectible surface condition.
Complete mounting‑hardware set uses period‑accurate open‑work floral‑engraved brass military‑spec fittings, classic flower‑pattern military tsuba, matching‑pattern fuchi & kashira, small floral‑shape brass menuki ornaments and solid‑brass habaki plus brass‑alloy seppa washers. Tsuka grip uses genuine natural ray‑fish samekawa inner lining wrapped with durable tan‑brown moro‑hineri cotton ito. Scabbard is solid hardwood finished with dark‑brown vintage‑effect lacquer, fitted with authentic military‑spec brass hanging ring, koiguchi and kojiri end‑cap hardware; matched traditional blue‑brown mixed‑tassel military‑style sageo cord with brass‑alloy clasp. Two natural bamboo mekugi pegs build fully‑removable full‑tang construction for blade inspection and regular anti‑rust maintenance. Military‑theme fabric storage bag, wooden sword‑stand and sword‑maintenance‑kit are included as free‑gift set; custom military‑mark blade‑engraving upgrade available for extra charge.
