Where are our katanas forged?
At Katana US, the quality of our katanas is at the heart of our concerns, and this is reflected in the places where they are forged. We work with expert craftsmen in various regions of the world, including Japan and China. This diversity allows us to offer a varied range of unique swords, each with its own characteristics and steel nuances.
Most of our katanas are forged in a small province in China known as Longquan, renowned for decades for its centuries-old expertise in sword making. This region benefits from decades of experience and a tradition that has been handed down for centuries. Historically, Japan has even imported forging techniques and swords from China, underscoring the importance of this region in the history of sword crafting.
China, with its less stringent regulations on exportation and forging, allows us to offer hand-forged katanas at affordable prices, starting from $200. This accessibility does not compromise the quality of our swords, which still benefit from the exceptional savoir-faire of our partner craftsmen.
At Katana US, we are proud to offer a carefully selected range of these exceptional pieces to our customers passionate about art and Japanese tradition.
