Key Features:
T10 Carbon Steel Clay Tempered Blade:
The blade of this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel, a material known for its exceptional strength, durability, and sharpness. The blade has been hand-sharpened to achieve a sharp edge. The clay tempering process has created a real hamon, the distinctive wavy pattern along the blade’s edge that signifies superior craftsmanship and quality. This blade is not only functional but also visually stunning, making it a testament to the art of traditional Japanese sword-making.
Elegant Handle Design:
The handle of the katana is wrapped in real white samegawa, providing a traditional and textured grip, and further accented with dark blue cord wrap. This combination of white and dark blue creates a refined and visually striking contrast, enhancing the overall elegance of the sword. The handle is designed for both comfort and a secure grip, making it ideal for display or practical use.
Hand-Painted Hardwood Saya (Scabbard):
The saya, or scabbard, is made from high-quality hardwood and finished with a premium natural lacquer in a multi-color hue. The hand-painted design adds a vibrant and artistic touch, making the saya not just a functional component but also a visually captivating piece. The saya’s intricate craftsmanship and colorful design enhance the katana’s overall aesthetic, making it a standout piece in any collection.
Wave-Themed Copper Tsuba (Hand Guard):
The tsuba, or handguard, is made from high-quality copper and features a detailed wave motif. In Japanese culture, waves symbolize strength, resilience, and the ever-changing nature of life. The intricate design of the wave-themed tsuba adds both aesthetic value and functional protection, making it a beautiful and meaningful element of the katana. The tsuba ties together the sword’s overall theme, adding depth and significance to its appearance and making it a perfect complement to the other design elements.
This masterfully crafted katana is a harmonious blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and artistry. With its T10 carbon steel blade, real hamon, elegantly wrapped handle, hand-painted saya, and wave-themed tsuba, it offers both beauty and functionality. Whether you are a collector looking for a unique addition to your display or a practitioner seeking a reliable and visually stunning weapon, this katana is sure to impress.
