Japanese sword

Kisaki. The sword’s tip to the sword’s mune. The back of the sword opposite the blade. It is the part of the back opposite the blade that is hollowed out in a key shape from the tip to the stem. The distance between the stem and the mune is called the “wari” (the length of the blade). This is one of the unique beauties of the Japanese sword, which is not found in Western swords, which are mainly straight swords.
The warp makes it easy to pull the blade out of the scabbard, and allows for smooth cutting when the sword is swung down. It also softens the impact of a cut.
