Description:
The Japanese Wakizashi sword was an auxiliary sword used by the Samurai and worn along side with the Katana, wearing them together is a sign that the person is a Samurai, called Daisho. The Samurai Wakizashi is a backup sword, a great balanced sword that can be wielded either with one or two hands, also can be used in a tight place if a Samurai lost his Katana in the battle. We make matching Wakizashis and Katanas. All our Wakizashis are created for real use, using full tang construction to make a very strong, flexible blade. Make handsome display pieces for your home or office, it is also the best gift for your families and friends.
In each of the game's missions, the player is given a small number of large space ships (always less than ten, and sometimes just one or two), along with accompanying fighters and bombers. The ships are large and cumbersome, and the battles between fleets protracted, giving the game a noted cinematic feel.[1] Nexus uses the Black Sun Engine, made specifically for the game. Based on DirectX 9, it makes extensive use of vertex and pixel shaders, a parametric particle system, and other visual effects.
After a battle with a Syndicate fleet for the control of the Angelwing back at the Spacetech Europa stations, Cromwell is given command of the cruiser and ordered to investigate the secret Kissaki base. At Pluto, an artificial intelligence, named Angel, uploads herself into the Angelwing and advises Cromwell to escape from an alien, orb-like entity - later known as a Mechanoid - through a nearby wormhole, which was the exact same wormhole as the one which collapsed near Mars.

"KAMASU-KISSAKI"
The line from the start of the kissaki to the top ofit is almost straight.
Such a kissaki is especially called "kamasu-" even if the kissakiis long or short. It looks very sharp.
This type has a little different meaning than other types. Because, thistype is an original shape of the kissaki before 14th century. But it isvery rare to be found today.
The tip is very sharp and delicate, so it is easy to be broken in a fight.The kissaki line easily becomes round by re-polishing after use. We cansee kamasu type only on healthy blades in some old temples or shrines astheir treasure. They were put in there before use to celebrate Buddha orgod.
=> Uesugi tachi of Ichimonji
Therefore we have to change the image of the kissakishape when we think about the original in the period of samurai livingbefore 14th century.
After 15th century, most of the kissaki shape is "chu-" and "o-kissaki",never seen "ikubi-" or "ko-kissaki".
"Regarding blade form and samurai culture in the history"
Some type of kissaki is typical in a particular period of time. Of courseit comes from practical advantages in the fighting style, but that is notthe only reason. The spirit of the samurai culture makes the styles ofeach period.
Of course, there are various types of blades in every period. We speak about just the typical type of each period.
The late Heian to the early Kamakura period
In the 12th century, the samurai's' status is not so high. They are guardsof the nobility. The government never stand without samurai, but they don'thave political power. They fight often for the political game of nobilities.And they are longing for the nobility culture.
In the battle field, the main weapon is the bow and arrow, so the armouris heavy and hard. The typical blade style in this period is big fumbari, emphatic koshi-sori, and ko-kissaki. It is elegant for the eyes and goodto aim for the openings in the armour.
It is told that such an elegant form suggest the samurai's yearning forthe nobility culture. But, most of the blades from that period is veryworn. we have to study again if the form is so in its original. (=>Changing of blade shape by wearing)
The early Kamakura period to the middle
At the end of 12th century, samurai get their own government. Officially,it is a guard of the emperor.
Blades become strong and powerful. In other words, thicker and wider.
The late Kamakura period
In the late 13th century, Japan gets attacked by Mongolia twice. Samuraifight very hard and then they have to prepare for the third attack. Theperiod is very exciting and samurai's are united against the next invasion.
In this period the blade with an ikubi-kissaki is typical. The strong bladewith ikubi-kissaki is a symbol of the samurai spirit in this age. A shortand thick kissaki may be heavy duty.
The Nambokucho period
In the early 14th century, the samurai government is broken and two imperialgovernments appear. Samurai's fight each other for their emperors. Thereis no order in samurai society. Each samurai tries to display themselvesto emphasize their power.
In this period, large and O-kissaki blades become typical. So also is anartificial wavy hamon and designed engravings. Such a blade is easy forthe eyes to feel the power.

Fire and wind come from the sky, from the gods of the sky. But Crom is your god, Crom and he lives in the earth. Once, giants lived in the Earth, Conan. And in the darkness of chaos, they fooled Crom, and they took from him the enigma of steel. Crom was angered. And the Earth shook. Fire and wind struck down these giants, and they threw their bodies into the waters, but in their rage, the gods forgot the secret of steel and left it on the battlefield. We who found it are just men. Not gods. Not giants. Just men. The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery. You must learn its riddle, Conan. You must learn its discipline. For no one - no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts.
