The handle, beautifully adorned with real white samegawa and black cord wrapping, ensures a comfortable and secure grip. The hardwood saya, coated with premium natural lacquer in a deep black hue, embodies sophistication and durability. This katana is not just a weapon, but a work of art, steeped in tradition and symbolism.
Key Features:
Damascus Steel Full Tang Blade with Real hamon:
The blade, forged from Damascus steel, is renowned for its sharpness, strength, and flexibility. Damascus steel, characterized by its distinctive banding patterns, is created by folding and hammering the steel repeatedly. The blade is then clay tempered, a traditional process involving the application of clay to the blade before heating and quenching. This results in a real hamon, a temper line that enhances the blade's aesthetic and functional qualities.
Black Cord Handle with Real White Samegawa:
The tsuka, or handle, is decorated with real white samegawa (ray skin) and black cord wrapping. The samegawa provides a textured surface that ensures a secure grip, while the black cord wrapping adds aesthetic appeal. The combination of white samegawa and black cord wrapping creates a visually stunning contrast that complements the blade.
Black Hardwood Saya with Premium Natural Lacquer:
The saya, or scabbard, is made of hardwood and coated with a premium natural lacquer in a classic black hue. The lacquer provides a smooth, glossy finish while protecting the wood from moisture and damage. The black hue of the saya perfectly complements the other elements of the katana, creating a cohesive and elegant design.
Copper Tsuba with Dragon Theme:
The tsuba, or hand guard, is made of copper and features a dynamic dragon theme. The dragon, a symbol of power, strength, and good luck in Japanese culture, adds a layer of symbolism and aesthetic appeal to the katana. The tsuba is further enhanced by gold and silver gilding technology, which adds an extra layer of beauty and refinement to the sword.
In summary, this handcrafted full-tang katana is a masterpiece that combines tradition, artistry, and functionality. From its sharp-edged Damascus steel blade with a genuine hamon to its beautifully adorned handle, premium lacquered saya, and intricately gilded tsuba with a dragon theme, every aspect of this sword reflects meticulous attention to detail and a deep respect for tradition. Whether you are a collector, a martial artist, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty and tradition of Japanese swords, this katana is a worthy addition to your collection.
