Japanese Katana FAQ

What is a hamon?
A hamon is the visible temper line along a katana's edge, created by coating the blade in clay before quenching. It is a sign of traditional differential hardening.

Is a folded-steel katana better?
Folding steel was a traditional way to refine metal. On a quality modern blade, good heat treatment matters most, but folding produces a beautiful grain pattern.
