In XYFOS.COM you will find that we have classified our swords, katanas, sabres, and other items, as BATTLE READY or FUNCTIONAL, the items not marked like BATTLE READY or FUNCTIONAL, are decorative ones. Now we explain what does it mean tha a sword, katana, sabre, etc... is defined in one other other manner.

The swords, katanas and sabres, signaled as “BATTLE READY” are those whose blades and hilts have been forged by expertise swordsmithers, following the traditional methods. The blade is forged in tempered high carbon steel. They are also "Full Tang". The only difference betwen this swords, sabres and katanas and the reproduced originals, is that, in some cases, they are not sharpened.

The swords, katanas and sabres “BATTLE READY”, can be sharpened by a professional.

The swords, katanas and sabres can be described also as "FUNCTIONAL"

"FUNCTIONAL" is all sword, katana or sabre, made with similar materials as used in the ancient times, some times better in terms of strength and hardness. The blades are of high carbon stainless steel and hilts of brass, iron or steel. These swords, sabres and katanas, can be sharpened. They can give a very good acount of themselves in a real fight, but their resistance to strong and continuous hits blade agains blade is not as good as for BATTLE READY ones.

The swords, katanas and sabres not described as “BATTLE READY” or "FUNCTIONAL" are for decoration, they not reproduce the strenght and hardness of the replicated original. But they are high quality pieces, with blades forged in stainless steel and hilts of metal aleation or brass .

No sword, katana or sabre is indestructible, what we see in movies is normally false or wrong.

Swords, katanas and sabres were intended to cut and chop "soft materials" as meat and bone. To hit one stone or tree with the best sword in the world isthe fastest way to destroy it. If the edges of two swords hit, both of them will be more or less damaged. Of course no sword, katana or sabre can cut the blade of other sword, or a feather in the air, as we can see in some movies.

If you practice with any sword, katana or sabre, decorative ones included, they must be done with maximum care, taking all possible precautions and wearing protective armour.

SWORD, KATANA AND SABRE CARE

All swords, katanas and sabres, even the best ones, can be damaged by time, usage, weather etc... To avoid this you should follow these simple precautions.
- Not leave them outside.
- To clean them regularly with a good metal polisher.
- Avoid touching the blade, because swept and grease of the hands contain acids that could damage the steel.
- To keep the blade softly oily.
