Introducing a handcrafted full-tang katana, a symbol of martial prowess and artistic tradition. This masterpiece of craftsmanship is a testament to the timeless beauty and lethal efficacy of Japanese swordmaking.
Features:
Blade: The soul of this sword is its sharp-edged blade, expertly forged from 1060 carbon steel. This material, known for its superb strength and flexibility, makes this blade a formidable tool and a weapon of unerring precision, embodying the strength and subtlety that katanas are renowned for.
Handle: The handle of this katana, crafted from robust hardwood, is wrapped meticulously with black PU samegawa, a synthetic alternative to traditional ray skin, providing a comfortable and firm grip. It is further secured with a tightly wrapped black cord, ensuring the sword's balance and handling qualities are second to none.
Saya and sageo: One of the unique features of this katana is its saya, or scabbard. Made from durable hardwood, it is adorned using a traditional Japanese technique known as "Shinogizukuri". In this intricate process, the saya is wrapped with special paper or cloth, enhancing both its durability and aesthetics. This paper-wrapping technique gives the saya a distinct and refined look, increasing the overall allure of the weapon. The grey sageo, or cord, that binds the saya ensures your sword remains safe and secure when not in use, while also adding a discreet, yet striking contrast to the black tones of the handle and saya.
Tsuba: Completing this katana is an alloy tsuba with a deep black hue. This handguard, serving a vital protective function, adds a touch of understated elegance to the sword, underscoring the balance between form and function that is characteristic of the katana.
This full-tang katana, a blend of tradition, performance, and craftsmanship, is a superb embodiment of the samurai's enduring spirit and an exceptional piece for any sword enthusiast or collector.
