Japanese Swords

Rocket Handmade Knives offers traditionally made katana, wakasashi and tanto. Swords are made from bar and are not forged, and we use the best and toughest of stainless steels as blade materials. Made with a variety of traditional and non-traditional materials for that perfect look and produced in a mostly traditional way.
