Key Features:
T10 Carbon Steel Full Tang Blade with Real Hamon:
The blade is a testament to the artisan's skill and dedication. Made from T10 carbon steel, known for its exceptional toughness and edge retention, the blade is hand-sharpened, ensuring a razor-sharp edge. The clay tempering process yields a real hamon, a distinct wavy pattern along the blade's edge that enhances both its beauty and structural strength. This careful balance between form and function results in a blade that is both visually stunning and practically formidable.
Blue Cord Handle with Real White Samegawa:
The handle is adorned with real white samegawa (rayskin), providing an exceptional grip and a touch of luxury. This texture is complemented by a wrapping of blue cord, adding both visual appeal and enhancing the user's grip. The combination of white and blue not only serves a functional purpose but also lends an air of sophistication to the sword.
Black Hardwood Saya with Real Horns Koiguchi And Kojiri:
The saya, or scabbard, is crafted from hardwood and coated with a premium natural lacquer in a deep black hue. This not only protects the blade but also adds an aesthetic dimension to the sword. The koiguchi (scabbard mouth) and kojiri (scabbard end) are made from real horn, adding both durability and a touch of traditional elegance. The use of real horn is a nod to the craftsmanship of yesteryears, grounding this contemporary piece in a rich history.
Copper Tsuba with Unique Patterns:
The tsuba, or handguard, is made of copper and features unique patterns carefully etched into its surface. Its round shape is a classic design, providing both protection and balance when handling the sword. The intricate patterns on the tsuba add a final touch of artistry, making this wakizashi not just a weapon but a piece of art.
This handmade wakizashi sword is a masterful blend of tradition and modernity. From its T10 carbon steel blade with a real hamon to its white samegawa and blue cord-wrapped handle, down to its black lacquered hardwood saya with real horn koiguchi and kojiri, and finishing with its patterned copper tsuba—every element has been carefully considered and expertly crafted.
