ZUBENG FORGE

 Zubeng Forge is a Smithy in the heart of China, Master Rich Chen uses an Ancient formula to create true Tamahagane steel for his swords and knives.  Making Tamahagane steel is a long and labor intensive process which starts with select Iron Sand and other Natural materials that are found in only a few places in the world.

Here is a video of Master Chen making Tamahagane for his Sword

                 

  Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to the EXCLUSIVE ONLINE DEALER for Master Rich Chen of Zubeng Forge


~ Direct from the Maker ~

Exclusively at Fort Henry Custom Knives 

Master Chen brought me a piece of the actual Tamahagane Steel as it appears “In Process” 

 This is rare, small Light Weight Full Height Convex Ground blade that would work beautifully as a Bird N Trout, General Carry or Small Game Hunting knife.

Hand Forged from the same Hand Made Tamahagane steel with the same type of Grind that Master Chen uses for his High End Chinese swords!

A Differential Heat Treat on the Convex Blade leaves an intricate flowing Hamon which defines the Hardness Zones of the blade ~ from the Softer spine to the Hard Cutting Edge.

This type of Hamon is clearly visible in all true Tamahagane pieces.

The handle is nicely contoured ~ this is a small, Full Tang knife with a Full Grip sized handle, easily carried and it will fit most any grip.

This elegant Hand Forged blade has been given rich Cocobolo handle scales that have wonderful natural grain, the Small Brass Pins add a nice touch.
