Our folded steel katana is created as a result of popular request. It is constructed of a dual folded (pattern wielded) steel. This is done by layering two different steel billets together first, then folding 5 to 6 times in order to create a visible grain pattern in the steel.

We recommend that blades constructed using this steel be used for display purposes or for light cutting only. For a heavier duty cutter, we recommend our monosteel lines.
