Product Introduction
The Yihe Tachi is medium-priced Chinese oriental cultural themed long traditional tachi, taking traditional Yihe auspicious pattern as core design, suitable for new chinese style study collection, cultural studio display and high-end oriental art gifts. The extra long blade adopts T10 high-carbon maru mono solid steel, made by traditional Tsuchioki clay differential temper craft to form neat continuous Notare rounded wave hamon, extended shinogizukuri long blade without blood groove, multi-stage fine mirror polishing and factory pre-sharpened light cutting edge, only fit slow iaido drawing training, not for heavy continuous tameshigiri cutting.
The whole set of mounting hardware is solid red copper with embossed hollow chinese yihe relief carving, including round tsuba, fuchi, kashira and matching yi mini menuki ornaments. The extended oval long tsuka uses genuine bump black natural ray skin as inner lining, wrapped with dark red moro-hineri diamond cotton silk, stable two-hand grip for long tachi drawing posture. The scabbard is solid hardwood with handmade red-brown gradient transition lacquer finish, matched red brown mixed woven cotton sage binding cord. This long tachi adopts two bamboo mekugi double pin full disassemblable tang design, convenient regular blade anti-rust oil maintenance. A deluxe thick fabric storage bag is provided as free gift accessory; personalized yihe pattern blade carving upgrade service available upon request.
