"Did you know? blade-sharp knowledge
At #Terressens, we don't just sell exceptional katanas and swords. We also forge a link between the object and its history, between the blade and the legend. With this in mind, we're launching a new editorial line: "Did you know?"
Behind every weapon lies a world. An era, a tradition, a battle, a work of art. Did you know that the samurai sometimes used poems as their secret code? That some medieval swords bore cabalistic inscriptions? That the katana in Kill Bill was inspired by a real blade? That Tolkien drew his inspiration for The Lord of the Rings from the Norse sagas as well as the Arthurian story? With "Did you know?", we share these little-known nuggets, these fascinating details, these anecdotes as sharp as a well-sharpened blade. On our social networks, on our product pages, or in our magazine, this new section will accompany you throughout your discoveries.
Whether it's a question of history, technique or pop culture, our ambition remains the same: to pass on what gives meaning to the object. Because a beautiful blade without a story is just a piece of steel. With a story, it comes alive.
Join us every day to learn, smile... and perhaps marvel. And if you have an anecdote to share, or a question about our favorite worlds: let us know. At #Terressens, knowledge is a weapon to be shared.
