period (A.D.1600-1867) in Japan, Whenever SAMURAI went
out from his house, they were required to always carry
their two samurai sword with them.
Supposing that a man put on one Japanese sword, it meant
that he is a YAKUZA in Japan who is
like Mafia at USA. Long Japanese sword was used for
battle, short Japanese sword was mainly used for HARAKIRI
(Seppuku), which had been translated into English as
"disembowel oneself". And so, two Japanese
swords were symbol who is a SAMURAI. In other
words, two Japanese swords were the symbol of SAMURAI's
courage. SAMURAI thought it disgraceful to go to the
scaffold, and so there was no option for SAMURAI but to
do HARAKIRI. Therefore, replica of samurai sword consists
of two Japanese swords at present Japan. (As a matter of
fact, many Samurai used Japanese folding fans instead of
swords, and, other Samurai lopped off their head.) The
major producing region of Japanese sword's replica is
SEKI-city in GIFU prefecture at Japan. As might be
expected, the producing region of this item is SEKI-city.
