Kami Wakizashi is a wonderful addition to the three piece collection. Each piece in the Kami group has a hand forged and folded ASSAB K120C powder steel blade, differentially tempered to produce an HRC60 edge, HRC40 back and a distinctive hamon. Saya are richly lacquered in red, with a black ring carved part at the sageo. The ray skin used on the tsuka is of the best quality, and the tsuka ito on the Katana and Wakizashi and the sageo on all three pieces are fused from highest quality Japanese silk. The Fuchi, Kashira, Kojiri, Koiguchi and Kurigata are all produced from blackened bronze, with decoration in relief and selective detailing of copper, silver and gold. Tsuba of the Katana and Wakizashi, depicting the Kami, or Guardian Warriors, are made from hardened blackened copper, with decoration in relief and selective silver and gold detailing. Kami Wakizashi features the Habaki which is of two piece construction, the inner section being copper and the outer section gold plated brass. The blades in the Kami Collection are inscribed, at the Habaki, with a hand engraved "Fudo" horomono, a traditional blade carving from the Edo period. The blades of all three pieces are grooved on both sides, and each piece features a long Kissaki.
