    The meaning
    of the Chinese Character poem engraved on the blade
    of
    Chilsung Saingeom
    .
    乾降精 坤援靈 日月象 岡 澶形 撝雷電
    하늘은 정(精)을 내리시고 땅은 영(靈)을 도우시니 해와 달이
    모양을 갖추고 산천이 형태 이루며 번개가 몰아치는도다.
    運玄坐 推山惡 玄斬貞
    현좌(玄坐)를 움직여 산천(山川)의 악한 것을 물리치고
    현묘(玄妙)한 도리로서 베어 바르게 하라는 글씨가 새겨져 있고
    뒷면에는 하늘에 별자리가 새겨져 있습니다
    History of Saingeom:
    In the Joseon dynasty, exorcising swords called ‘Saingeom’ were produced under the leadership of the royal family. Originally the purpose of an ordinary sword was to defend oneself or defeat enemies, but they were made to drive the ghost away, not for killing. After considering all the factors, it is thought that the sword was made for a symbolic purpose.
    Ancient people believed that invisible evil spirits existed in their lives. At that time, it was thought that the ghosts caused unexpected disasters, so they were interested in some kinds of exorcism in order to protect themselves from the evil spirits.
    After completing the sword, a religious service was performed with alcohol, fruit, white chickens, and incense and candles on the altar.
    Process of Artwork:
    Using traditional Japanese
    discipline
    and the strict guideline, the blade [kitae] was forged by Jun Gi [Japanese famed swordsmith]. Jun Gi is an apprentice of famed swordsmith Kunimasa Matsuba of Miyazaki prefecture.
    Cleaning the blade to make sure it is free of oil and impurities and then applies the special clay mixture [Yakibatsuchi] to the blade, which makes hamon by [*Lee SeungHO]. *He is Korea's top sword artisan for over 30 years
    of experience.
    [
    Yakibatsuchi] is the polishing stone powder ash or charcoal powder.
    The blade is then heated up to 720~780 degrees and is quenched in water, which rapidly cools the edge to form martensite [the hardest type of steel]
    and slowly cools the body due to its thicker clay coating and forming ferrite and pearlite [softer and more flexible].
    Basic togi [polishing] is then performed, along with any carvings/ personalizations to the body of the blade.  Nakago [tang] is polished and the swordsmith's signature [Lee SeungHo] carved.
    The blade is then handed over to our togishi [polisher], who uses multiple polishing stones to refine our Saingeom. The gold-laid blade is prepared to carve the seven stars on one side of the blade and 24 Sanskrit words on another side.
    This traditional Chosun Dynasty Chilsung Saingeom is decorated with premium-quality brass fittings by the skilled hand crafted. The scabbard is painted with the gloss high-quality
    purple lacquer varnish wood tone.
