Sofcombat Nodachi-140cm. 442604

The best made blades are forged by the most skilled blacksmiths, the metal worked with such precision and care that the edge can cut through flesh so cleanly that a person might not even know they have been cut.

You have commissioned a blacksmith to make you such a Wakizashi. Before you pay him, you want to be sure that it is a well-made blade, so you perform a test. You produce a silk blade, allowing it to fall slightly over the edge of the Wakizashi. The blade is cut cleanly, not a thread is missing.

The blade is perfect.
