Hi there,
I wanted to personally share our newest episode of History’s Most Dangerous Katana with you. This one explores a blade from 1681 said to have severed seven bodies in a single recorded cutting test — the highest number ever inscribed on a surviving sword.
It’s a fascinating look at Edo-period sword certification, the economics of reputation, and how documentation transformed steel into legend.

As always, thank you for being part of this journey. Your support truly means a lot.
Kind Regards,
Kei, Matt & Team from the History of Katana
