Well to answer your questions ILuvKaylee: 1, Yes it is a Katana and yes it was made in Japan, but is half tang and non sharp. It is a practice blade for Iaido (ie Japanese art of drawing the blade, defending oneself, and resheathing the blade) 2, It was made by Koei Budogu (One of the top martial art suppliers in Japan) Order it through my Sensei's website which is http://www.bogubag.com/ and he is the U.S rep for them. So hope that helps mata, Ookami yori

I, too, have a Katana & Wakazashi, but no Tanto...
440 stainless, full tang. Not terribly expensive, but decent, well-balanced.

Here's a really Shiny website for those into
well-made / hand-made swords -- all types:

They have a replica of Miyamoto Musashi's Katana...

Sorry, me again slight correction
Its 2am something when I posted the pict I think and screwed up the name. oki na machigai masu ne. The name of my blade should be "Tora no Takara" so screwed up the word for treasure. It should be Takara. Sorry about that.
mata, Ookami yori

Well Railean, To each his/her own.
For me the katana is not just a blade, but a peice of art and is to be treasured as such. Speaking of which finally managed to buy a display stand so when I'm not practicing with it can display it as it should be.
