Superior Short History |
| In the beginning Samurais fought mainly from from horseback with bow and arrow, they reserved the sword for close combat and beheading their enemies. Warring with the Mongols in the late 13th century led to a big change in the Samurai fighting style. They were battling more and more on the ground as apposed to horseback. They were using swords, spears and naginata. The Samurai wore two swords (daisho). One was long; the other short. The long sword (daito - katana) was more than 24 inches. The short sword (shoto - wakizashi) was between 12 and 24 inches. The Samurai often gave names to their swords and believed it was the "soul" of their warriorship. The first swords were straight and were designed in Korea and China. The Samurai's now heavy swords battles required stronger and sharper swords, thus the rise of the curved blade. The sword had its beginning as iron combined with carbon. The sword smith used fire, water, anvil and hammer to shape the world's best swords. Then sword testers took the new blade and cut through the bodies of corpses or condemned criminals. They started by cutting through the small bones of the body and moved up to the large bones. Test results were often recorded on the nakago (the metal piece attaching the sword blade to the handle). The saber differs from the sword, in that the sword is sharp on both edges, while the saber has a blade only on one side, the other side is dull and blunt for defense. |
