Features of the Ōkami Katana
The Ōkami Katana, inspired by the spirit of the wolf, embodies pride, strength, and independence through its meticulous design and premium materials. Every detail reflects a harmonious blend of tradition and functionality, making it a standout piece for enthusiasts of Japanese weapons and martial arts practitioners alike.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, known for its high carbon content, the blade of the Ōkami Katana delivers exceptional durability and the ability to maintain an incredibly sharp edge. The hamon, subtly etched along the blade through selective tempering, ensures the ideal balance between hardness and flexibility. This feature not only enhances the blade’s longevity but also showcases the ancestral craftsmanship of traditional swordsmithing.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The intricately sculpted copper tsuba combines functionality with artistic finesse. Copper, chosen for its malleability and resistance to corrosion, allows for the creation of intricate designs that blend traditional motifs with refined elegance. The tsuba offers reliable hand protection while serving as a decorative element that reflects the historical beauty of Japanese swords.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The lacquered wooden saya is adorned with the crest of the Toyotomi clan, paying homage to a pivotal era in Japanese history. The glossy lacquer finish not only enhances the scabbard’s visual appeal but also provides strong protection against the elements, preserving the quality of the wood and the blade it houses. This seamless fusion of tradition and practicality ensures that the saya is as functional as it is visually striking.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
The tsuka is wrapped in genuine white shagreen, offering a grip that is both comfortable and secure. Renowned for its non-slip texture and durability, shagreen is a preferred material in Katana construction. Its luxurious appearance adds a touch of sophistication, perfectly complementing the functional elegance of the sword.
The Ōkami Katana is more than just a weapon—it is a masterpiece symbolising the strength, independence, and nobility of the wolf. Designed for those who value Japanese history and tradition, as well as martial artists, this Katana perfectly balances aesthetics and performance. Whether for training or as a valuable addition to a collection, the Ōkami Katana stands out for its exceptional craftsmanship, refined design, and symbolic meaning.
