Key Features:
Sanmai Steel Full Tang Blade with Real Hamon:
The heart and soul of the katana, the blade is forged from the revered Sanmai steel. Celebrated for its trilaminar composition, Sanmai steel offers an unparalleled blend of durability and flexibility. But beyond its structural excellence, the blade is a canvas of artistry: clay tempered to perfection, it possesses a sharp edge that promises precision in every cut. The real hamon, a result of this tempering process, is not just a visual marvel; it’s a testament to the smith's expertise and the blade’s balance between strength and flexibility.
Brown Cord Handle with Real White Samegawa:
An embodiment of aesthetics and functionality, the katana's handle is where the warrior's grip meets the craftsman's vision. Adorned with genuine white samegawa, this base offers a tactile and luxurious experience. Wrapped meticulously over this is a rich brown cord, adding layers of texture, grip, and visual charm. This union of white and brown, aside from being visually captivating, provides a comfortable and steady hold, ensuring the katana becomes a seamless extension of its wielder.
Black Hardwood Saya with Premium Natural Lacquer:
The saya, more than a protective sheath, is a testament to refined artistry. Crafted from select hardwood, it is built to shield and complement the blade. Its surface, coated in a premium natural lacquer, presents a deep, mesmerizing black. But what truly sets it apart are the exquisite patterns etched onto it, transforming the saya from a mere sheath to a canvas narrating tales of tradition and sophistication.
Copper Tsuba with Flowers Theme:
Standing at the crossroads of protection and art is the tsuba. Forged from lustrous copper, this handguard captivates with its floral theme. The intricate flower patterns, etched with care, resonate with motifs of life, nature, and beauty. Beyond its protective function, the tsuba serves as a delicate reminder of the balance between strength and elegance, between the battlefield and the serene landscapes that the warriors once vowed to protect.
This handmade katana is more than just steel and craftsmanship; it is a tale interwoven with history, art, and dedication. From the trilaminar Sanmai blade showcasing its distinct hamon to the hardwood saya adorned with intricate patterns, every facet of this weapon tells a story. The floral-themed tsuba, the brown cord-wrapped handle atop white samegawa, together craft a narrative that honors the legacy of samurai warriors and the hands that shaped their swords. In wielding this katana, one doesn’t just hold a weapon, but a piece of history, a work of art, and a symbol of unyielding spirit.
