I hear that japanes formal sword is made from iron sand,not
iron ore.However Hitachi metals is one of high-tech specialty steel maker,raw steel for samurai sword is made from iron sand by the ancient steel making method “tatara”.
I hear that Hitachi’s modern speciality steel making is based on the sword making technology.
And also I wached NHK TV program named Project-X and it said the same explanation.
