![]() The process for forging an authentic Samurai Sword is the same for all Katana created in Japan, whether it’s an antique Japanese sword or a high quality modern-day Katana. So without further ado let’s get started. We’ll also look to dismiss some common misconceptions and burst a few fantasies surrounding the Japanese Samurai Sword (hopefully we’ll not upset too many people). This article is to assist in understanding what the real thing is: a sort off beginner’s intro to sword making and where the costs come from. You may be asking yourself, why do swords made in Japan cost so much? What’s the difference between a ‘real’ Japanese Sword and something which is affordable and looks the same and comes from outside Japan? If you’d rather buy something traditional but made outside of Japan, you’ll likely pay anywhere between $150 and $2000, this would be for a sword that is for all intents and purposes crafted in a traditional manner. If you’re looking to buy yourself an authentic Katana Samurai Sword, something which has been hand-crafted in Japan (called a Shinken or True Sword), expect to pay £10,000 or more.
