Key Features:
Sharp-Edged Folded Melaleuca Steel Blade:
The katana features a handmade blade forged from Folded Melaleuca Steel, renowned for its exceptional durability, sharpness, and unique natural patterns. The blade is sharp-edged and clay tempered, a process that enhances its strength and sharpness. The blade also boasts a real hamon—a wavy pattern along the edge that signifies superior craftsmanship and adds a layer of visual appeal to the sword.
Elegant Handle with Blue Samegawa and Brown Cord Wrapping:
The handle is wrapped in genuine blue samegawa (ray skin) and secured with brown cord. This combination provides a secure and comfortable grip while adding a striking contrast to the katana’s overall design. The blue and brown color scheme enhances the katana’s sophisticated aesthetic, making it both functional and visually appealing.
Hardwood Saya with Black Finish:
The saya, or scabbard, is crafted from high-quality hardwood and finished with a black hue. The saya is further enhanced with real horn Koiguchi (mouth) and Kojiri (end), adding durability and a touch of authenticity to the scabbard’s design. This refined finish not only protects the blade but also complements the katana’s overall elegance.
Intricate Copper Tsuba with Gold and Silver Gilding:
The tsuba, or handguard, is made from copper and features intricate patterns that showcase the craftsmanship involved in its creation. The tsuba is further enhanced with gold and silver gilding technology, adding a luxurious touch to the katana. This beautifully crafted tsuba not only serves as a functional guard for the hand but also elevates the sword’s artistic value, making it a true collector’s item.
This katana is a perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, offering both functionality and visual appeal. From the Folded Melaleuca Steel blade with its real hamon to the elegantly wrapped handle and the intricately gilded tsuba, every aspect of this katana has been meticulously crafted to create a sword that is both powerful and stunningly beautiful.
