Paying tribute to the timeless art of Japanese sword-making, this Katana balances stunning aesthetics with top-tier performance.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Measuring 72 cm, the blade is a true testament to craftsmanship, forged using a hybrid of T10 steel, renowned for its toughness, and Damascus steel, celebrated for its striking wavy patterns. The visible hamon, revealed through a meticulous stone-polishing process, adds a touch of traditional elegance while highlighting the swordsmith’s expertise. This blend of steels not only ensures superior durability but also delivers a sharp, finely honed edge, making it ideal for cutting practice and advanced training sessions.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The brass tsuba is intricately designed, adorned with delicate gold and silver accents that elevate its regal appeal. In addition to its role as a hand guard, the tsuba acts as a focal point for the Katana’s overall design, blending functionality with intricate artistry. Its craftsmanship reflects the rich cultural heritage of the samurai, embodying strength and refinement.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
Crafted from lacquered magnolia wood, the saya combines resilience with understated elegance. The lacquer finish offers essential protection against the elements while adding a sleek, polished sheen that complements the blade’s beauty. Minimalist yet stylish, the scabbard enhances the Katana’s timeless aesthetic, making it a standout display piece as well as a practical accessory.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
The tsuka is wrapped in authentic ray skin (shagreen), offering a textured surface that ensures a secure and comfortable grip. Known for its exceptional durability, shagreen provides optimal control during handling, enhancing the Katana’s usability. This traditional material adds a refined, tactile quality, while the precision wrapping ensures the handle is both practical and visually striking.
