Master Swordsmith – Mr. Xing（刀匠）
Mr. Xing is a highly experienced swordsmith with over three decades dedicated to the forging of traditionally crafted Japanese swords. Rooted in traditional methods, he specializes in crafting Oroshigane blades, using steel smelted from satetsu (砂鉄) and refined through repeated folding (orikaeshi-tanren / 折り返し鍛錬). His blades are forged in Kobuse-zukuri (甲伏造) construction, featuring a hardened outer layer over a resilient core to achieve both durability and flexibility.
