Introducing the supreme craftsmanship and tradition embodied in our handmade full-tang katana, a sword not just of precision and utility, but a manifestation of artistry and ancient heritage.
Features:
Blade: At the heart of this unique creation is the blade, a piece of resolute strength and acute sharpness, carefully hand-sharpened from T10 carbon steel. This is a blade whose remarkable resilience and razor-sharp edge are born from the labor-intensive process of forging, honing, and refinement.
Real hamon: Further enhancing its characteristic nature, the blade undergoes a distinct clay tempering process, a method steeped in antiquity, resulting in a genuine hamon. This temper line, which delineates the transition between the softer spine and the harder edge of the blade, is not merely a striking aesthetic feature, it is the testimony of expert heat treatment and skill that ensures the blade's toughness and edge retention.
Handle: Complementing the formidable blade, the handle or tsuka is crafted from robust hardwood, wrapped with PU red samegawa or ray skin, which provides an excellent grip. Twined around this is a black cord, strategically woven to not just contribute an elegant aesthetic, but to offer superior handling, ensuring the sword feels secure and balanced in your grasp.
Saya and sageo: Our katana's sheath, or saya, is a work of art in its own right. Crafted from rosewood, it carries a charming brown hue, offering an earthy contrast to the polished gleam of the blade. The saya is accessorized with a black and red sageo or cord, providing not just a visually pleasing accent but a functional component as well.
Tsuba: The piece is crowned with a tsuba or handguard, constructed of iron and intricately imprinted with exquisite patterns. This final touch provides not just protection but an aesthetic flourish, marking this piece as a true convergence of form and function.
From tip to hilt, every detail of this sword, every curve, every engraving, speaks of the tradition, artistry, and power it embodies. This katana is a testament to the samurai spirit, a symbol of the balance between strength and elegance, a representation of the dedication to mastery and detail, and a piece that any sword enthusiast would be proud to possess.
