Blind Samurai

The owner of this sword used to be a blind hiker. He was a peaceful man, but his sword always defended him in case of danger. He overcame his opponents with his abilities and courage. His sword does not comprise a Tsuba and its design reminds of a Shirasaya. Two inconspicuous notches have been added on one side of the handle, always indicating in which direction the edge is pointing. The 1045 carbon steel blade is straight and not traditionally curved. Both handle and sheath are made of wood and have been elaborately painted.

Decorative or collector's sword, not suited for use!

Warning and safety information:
Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.
Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.
Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.
Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.
Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
