This is the massive hand forged Nodachi sword, or “field sword”. The sword was carried by foot soldiers as a counter measure against cavalry attacks. The massive blade would be wielded by two men to cut the legs out from under charging attacks. However, by a skilled and powerful warrior the sword could be used by a single man and had the potential to cut both horse and man apart in a single stroke.
During times of peace the sword would be carried by high ranking Samurai as a sign of status. Due to its length the sword would be carried on the Samurai’s back. Although this sword was slow, in the correct hands the sword was unstoppable.
The sword has been made from 1060 Carbon Steel. This mighty sword is spectacular to behold and would grace any collection.
