Katana Raptor Unokubi Zukuri Hanwei

Raptor Katana Unokubi-Zukuri's blade design, also called Nagamaki Naoshi, is modeled after the Nagamaki, a powerful long-handled sword popular between the 12th and 14th centuries. Known for its powerful shinogi-ji and diamond-shaped kissaki, the Unokubi-Zukuri katana provides excellent balance in a powerful cutting blade.
Designed under the auspices of cutting master James Williams, the Raptor series was created for cutting practitioners.

The blades are forged from high carbon 5160 steel and specially heat treated to achieve very high elasticity and greater tolerance to misdirected cuts than a conventional differently hardened blade. This steel construction also avoids the need for excessive thickness, allowing the blades to replicate the weight and handling characteristics of the Japanese originals. The edge geometry is configured to facilitate cutting both soft and semi-hard materials without chipping, allowing the cutter a wide variety of targets.

Each katana in the series has a unique blade style, each with its origins in Japanese swordmaking history, providing practitioners with a choice of aesthetics and handling characteristics.
