What is the difference between Musha and Musashi Swords?
remove
add
Musha is our entry-level brand that offers the best value for a katana. It is hand-forged using high carbon steel and you can fully disassemble it and swap out any of the parts. It does have a simulated hamon, but that does not take away from its functionality. While Musashi is a higher-end katana. Each Musashi Sword is hand-forged, we heat treat our blades for that distinct hamon and we provide you with one of the best swords for your money.
