Mumei Katana

In Japanese sword terminology, “mumei” refers to a sword with no signature of the swordsmith. Mumei also translate to “nameless”. Of all the swords we’ve designed, this is the only one that we weren’t able to name as there are just a lot of great names to use for this sword as suggested by our followers on Facebook.

This katana has a purple colored blade (same process of coating used for the Akuma no Chi, Shinobi Ninja Swords, Kuro Suzaku Katana). We were supposed to call this sword, Doku Katana (poison) as the blade looks very sinister, but we’re not quite satisfied with it. So for this katana, we’ll let you name this one or check out the suggestions posted on our Facebook page.

The video below shows the difference in flexibility between the 1st Generation and 2nd Generation. The 2nd Gen is more flexible like a 1060 blade.
