Handmade Brass Saya samurai sword Saber Sharp Folded Steel Blade Katana Tachi

Was a type of traditionally made Japanese sword (nihonto) worn by the samurai class of feudal Japan. The tachi style of swords preceded the development of the katana-the first use of the word katana to indicate a blade different from tachi appears toward the end of the twelfth century.

An authentic tachi that was manufactured in the correct time period averaged 70-80 centimeters (27 9/16 - 31 1/2 inches) in cutting edge length (nagasa) and compared to a katana was generally lighter in weight in proportion to its length, had a greater taper from hilt to point, was more curved with a smaller point area. Unlike the traditional manner of wearing the katana, the tachi was worn hung from the belt with the cutting-edge down, and was most effective when used by cavalry. Deviations from the average length of tachi have the prefixes ko- for "short" and o- for "great, large" attached. For instance, tachi that were shoto and closer in size to a wakizashi were called kodachi.

The longest tachi (considered a 15th-century odachi) in existence is more than 3.7 metres (12 ft) in total length with a 2.2 metres (7 ft 3 in) blade, but believed to be ceremonial. For a sword to be worn in "tachi style" it needed to be mounted in a tachi koshirae. The tachi koshirae had two hangers (ashi) which allowed the sword to be worn in a horizontal position with the cutting edge down. 72 cm / 28.3.
