We are delighted to introduce a meticulously handcrafted full-tang katana, a paragon of traditional Japanese swordsmanship. This high-performance blade is forged from sanmai steel and is hand-sharpened to perfection. The sharp-edged blade is clay tempered, revealing a genuine hamon. The handle, adorned with real white samegawa and black cord wrapping, ensures a secure and comfortable grip. The wood saya, enveloped in black pearl rayskin, combines elegance with strength. This katana is more than just a weapon; it is a masterpiece infused with tradition and symbolism.
Key Features:
Sanmai Steel Full Tang Blade with Real Hamon:
The high-performance blade is made of sanmai steel, a traditional Japanese steel comprised of a hard core steel sandwiched between two layers of softer steel. This construction gives the blade its sharpness, durability, and flexibility. The blade is hand-sharpened, ensuring a keen edge, and clay tempered, a process that involves applying clay to the blade before heating and quenching, resulting in a genuine hamon—a visual indicator of the blade's hardness and an aesthetic element that enhances the beauty of the sword.
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 for a secure grip, while the black cord wrapping adds aesthetic appeal. The interplay of white samegawa and black cord wrapping creates a visually pleasing contrast that complements the blade.
Black Pearl Rayskin Saya:
The saya, or scabbard, is made of wood and wrapped with black pearl rayskin. The black pearl rayskin not only adds an aesthetic layer but also enhances the durability and strength of the saya. The combination of wood and black pearl rayskin creates an elegant and durable scabbard that protects the blade and adds to the overall beauty of the katana.
Copper Tsuba with Dragon Theme:
The tsuba, or hand guard, is made of copper and features a dragon theme. In Japanese culture, the dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good fortune. The tsuba is further refined by gold and silver gilding technology, adding an extra layer of beauty and refinement to the sword.
From its hand-sharpened sanmai steel blade with an authentic hamon to its beautifully adorned handle, black pearl rayskin-wrapped 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 someone who appreciates the beauty and tradition of Japanese swords, this katana is a valuable addition to your collection.
