Features of the Miyamoto Katana
The Katana Miyamoto is a stunning creation that blends elegance and strength, paying homage to the timeless art of Japanese sword-making. Meticulously crafted, every detail of this Katana reflects the mastery of traditional techniques while ensuring exceptional cutting performance.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, renowned for its high carbon content, the blade offers outstanding sharpness and durability, making it ideal for cutting tatami mats. The visible hamon, achieved through a precise tempering process, is a testament to expert craftsmanship and adds an undeniable aesthetic charm. The inclusion of a bo-hi (groove) reduces the blade’s weight, enhancing balance and enabling effortless manoeuvrability during techniques, making it both functional and refined.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba is a true work of art, adorned with intricate gold detailing. More than just a functional guard for hand protection, it symbolises prestige and strength, echoing the warrior traditions of samurai culture. The finely engraved motifs contribute to the sword’s elegant appearance while reinforcing its practicality during handling.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, crafted from a combination of sculpted copper and brass, is as durable as it is elegant. Copper provides robust protection for the blade, while the brass elements add a warm golden hue that elevates the overall aesthetic. The seamless fusion of materials results in a scabbard that is both visually striking and highly functional, complementing the blade perfectly.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka ensures a secure and comfortable grip. Known for its textured surface and incredible durability, shagreen enhances control and precision during use. This premium material also contributes to the visual appeal of the Katana, creating a perfect harmony between performance and style.
