Features of the Kaeru Katana
The Kaeru Katana is a stunning example of individuality and bold craftsmanship, reflecting the spirit of the samurai who distinguished themselves through their unique styles. Seamlessly blending refined aesthetics with high performance, this Katana is perfect for those seeking a weapon that combines tradition with originality.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
The blade, with its distinctive golden hue, is forged from manganese steel, a material celebrated for its exceptional durability and resistance to wear. This steel ensures the blade remains robust during training while offering a captivating and unique aesthetic. The imitation hamon enhances the traditional look of the blade, while the inclusion of a Bo-Hi (groove) reduces weight and improves balance. This groove also produces a distinct whistling sound during cuts, adding an engaging auditory dimension to demonstrations and practice.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The solid brass tsuba is a striking feature, showcasing intricate craftsmanship that embodies the strength and elegance of the samurai spirit. Brass is renowned for its corrosion resistance and longevity, making it an ideal material for both protection and aesthetic appeal. The detailed engravings on the tsuba add a touch of sophistication, elevating the Katana’s overall visual impact.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The lacquered wooden saya is designed to protect the blade while showcasing a refined, glossy finish. The lacquer not only prevents scratches and shields the wood from external elements but also enhances the scabbard’s elegance. Each detail of the saya has been carefully considered to reflect the individuality of the wielder, paying homage to the unique character of the samurai who once wielded such blades.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
The tsuka is constructed from solid wood and covered in imitation ray skin, offering a reliable and comfortable grip. Although not genuine shagreen, this imitation material faithfully replicates its non-slip texture, providing excellent control during use. The tsuka’s ergonomic design ensures confident handling, whether in practice or display.
The Kaeru Katana is more than just a weapon—it is a tribute to uniqueness and elegance. From its golden blade to the intricate brass tsuba, every element of this Katana has been designed to balance functionality and artistry. Perfect for those who see themselves as exceptional and independent warriors, the Kaeru Katana combines the heritage of the samurai with a modern twist, standing out as both a high-performance weapon and a symbol of individuality.
