Phoenix Arms Phoenix Head Tachi - - Sanmai folded steel, clay tempered, 3-shade polish

The Phoenix Head Tachi is based on the  Meiji Era torikubi court tachi. It features exquisite brass fittings, full rayskin tsuka, and a custom lacquered saya.

The enormous, 31.5" nagasa blade is koshizori, reminiscent of old court tachi. A folded steel jacket is laminated to a harder steel core.

The cutting edge is clay tempered, with a three shade polish to bring out the details in the steel and hamon.

The blade has a small scratch (pictured), which lowers the price by $100.
