Features
Hand-Forged Hundred-Fold Clay Tempered Folded Pattern Steel Blade
The Faithful Warrior Tachi blade is hand-forged from hundred-fold folded pattern steel — produced by repeatedly forge-welding and folding high-carbon steel billets to refine the grain structure and produce a complex, layered surface pattern unique to every blade. Differentially clay tempered to achieve a hard ~60 HRC cutting edge and a resilient, shock-absorbing spine, then quenched to lock in the natural Hamon temper line.
13-Stage Hand-Polishing
Following clay tempering, the blade undergoes a rigorous 13-stage hand-polishing process on traditional Japanese waterstones. Each progressive stage uses finer grit to remove forge scale, refine the folded grain pattern, and reveal the Hamon temper line in full collector-grade clarity.
Authentic Brazilian Premium Imported Black Ebony Scabbard
The scabbard (Saya) is crafted from authentic Brazilian premium imported black ebony — one of the rarest and most visually prestigious natural materials in the world. Brazilian black ebony is prized for its extraordinary density, near-black depth of color, and exceptionally fine, consistent grain. Its natural luster and structural stability make it a benchmark material for the highest-tier collector sword scabbards.
Full Brass Fittings with Gold and Silver Inlay
All sword hardware — tsuba (guard), habaki, fuchi, and kashira — is cast in authentic full brass and finished with a dual-tone gold and silver inlay treatment. The interplay of warm gold and cool silver tones creates a visually sophisticated fitting presentation that elevates the overall collector aesthetic to a premium tier.
Full Tang Construction
The tang extends throughout the full 26cm handle length in the classical manner, anchored securely to ensure structural durability, authentic weight distribution, and the balance characteristics of a traditionally made Japanese tachi.

Maintenance
Handle the blade with clean, dry hands whenever possible. After handling, remove fingerprints and moisture using a soft cloth to prevent rust on the hundred-fold folded pattern steel.
Apply a light coat of appropriate sword maintenance oil every 2-3 months to protect the blade from corrosion and preserve the full clarity of the 13-stage polished Hamon line.
Keep the Brazilian black ebony scabbard away from extreme humidity fluctuations and heat sources. While black ebony is exceptionally moisture-resistant, stable storage conditions preserve the wood's natural luster and structural integrity long-term.
