Introduction:
Dragon King Taikyu Katana SD35480
I bought this one for the steel. T10 wth 9260 folded. Bought from RVA Katana. If your looking for a Dragon King or Hanwei, John will beat any comapnies advertised price.
Historical overview:
The koi is a symbol in Asian culture of endurance. The koi struggles to return up rivers through strong currents and many difficult obstacles. After finally arriving at its final destination, the koi transforms into a powerful dragon. The artisans at Dragon King depicts this struggle in beautiful sword art that few forges can.
Full Disclosure:
