Introducing the beautifully handcrafted, Full-Tang Katana, a masterclass in timeless artistry and lethal elegance. This sword is not just a weapon, but a testament to a grand tradition of craft, culture, and supreme functionality.
Features:
Blade: The blade of this katana is hand-forged from T10 carbon steel, a material celebrated for its unparalleled strength and flexibility. Hand-sharpened to a razor's edge, the blade is designed to cut with lethal precision. A distinguishing feature of the blade is its clay tempering process, a traditional technique that gives the blade its remarkable hardness and a beautiful, distinct hamon - a visual indication of the sword's tempered edge.
Handle: The handle of the katana is crafted from solid wood and meticulously decorated with authentic white Samegawa, a traditional ray skin covering that offers a superior grip. The handle is then wrapped in a striking blue cord, providing not only an enhanced grip but a vivid contrast to the pristine white beneath. A specialty of this katana, the handle utilizes knot paper wraps technology, a feature that lends an additional layer of durability and unique aesthetic charm to the handle.
Saya and sageo: Cloaking this magnificent blade is a saya, or scabbard, constructed from hardwood and painted black. The application of a layer of paint on the exterior creates the illusion of a leather texture, adding to its richness and depth. A matching blue Sageo, the cord for tying the saya to the belt, enhances the katana's color scheme while providing practical functionality.
Tsuba: A feature that sets this katana apart is the hand-carved copper tsuba, or hand guard. Decorated with intricate floral motifs, it is a work of art in itself, offering a delicate balance between protection and aesthetics. The tsuba is further enhanced by the use of gold and silver gilding technology, adding an opulent touch that elevates the overall aesthetics of the sword.
In the full-tang Katana, art and function blend seamlessly, resulting in a weapon that embodies the spirit of the samurai - resolute, artistic, and imbued with a quiet yet potent strength. This katana is not merely a sword, but a piece of history, a work of art, and a poignant symbol of the centuries-old samurai tradition.
