We are honored to introduce a masterfully handcrafted full-tang katana, a representation of the highest standards of traditional Japanese sword craftsmanship. This high-performance blade, forged from Damascus steel, is hand-sharpened and clay tempered to reveal an authentic hamon. The wood saya, wrapped with red pearl rayskin, showcases elegance and strength. The copper tsuba, adorned with a dragon theme, is enhanced with gold and silver gilding. This katana is not merely a weapon but a masterpiece steeped in tradition and symbolism.
Key Features:
Damascus Steel Full Tang Blade with Real hamon:
The high-performance blade, made of Damascus steel, is renowned for its sharpness, durability, and flexibility. Damascus steel is characterized by its distinctive banding patterns, created by repeatedly folding and hammering the steel. The blade is hand-sharpened, ensuring a keen edge. It is also clay tempered, a traditional process involving the application of clay to the blade before heating and quenching, resulting in a genuine hamon, a temper line that enhances the aesthetic and functional qualities of the blade.
Black Cord Handle with Real White Samegawa:
The tsuka, or handle, is adorned 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 combination of white samegawa and black cord wrapping creates a visually stunning contrast that complements the blade.
Red Pearl Rayskin Saya:
The saya, or scabbard, is made of wood and wrapped with red pearl rayskin. The red pearl rayskin not only adds a layer of aesthetic appeal but also enhances the durability and strength of the saya. The combination of wood and red pearl rayskin creates an elegant and durable scabbard that protects the blade while adding 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. 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.
From its hand-sharpened Damascus steel blade with an authentic hamon to its beautifully adorned handle, red 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 simply someone who appreciates the beauty and tradition of Japanese swords, this katana is a worthy addition to your collection.
