You are looking at a handmade KataKiriha Zukuri Ninjato Sword. It is a straight Japanese sword that dates back to pre-Heian times.
The blade of the sword has been handmade from T10 steel. It has been folded 13 times creating 8192 layers. We can see the clear grain pattern. The blade also exhibits one of the most appealing Hamon temper lines that is authentic and distinct as a result of traditional Clay Tempering Processes.
The shape of this Chokuto blade features a KataKiriha Zukuri sturcture (ridge placed close to the cutting edge)
