Key Features:
- Hand Forged Folded Steel Blade: The full tang blade is crafted from folded steel, folded 13 times to create 8192 layers. This process enhances the blade’s flexibility and hardness, ensuring durability and balance.
- Oil Quenched for Strength: The blade is heat-treated and oil quenched, with a special treatment that forms unique red and black patterns. These patterns not only add visual appeal but also protect the blade from rust. The color is designed to last and won’t fade unless the blade is re-polished.
- Full Tang Construction: Secured with two bamboo mekugi (pegs), the blade is firmly attached to the handle, offering stability and safety during use.
- Dragon Design Brass Tsuba: The tsuba (guard) features an intricate dragon design made of brass, adding elegance to the sword. It is secured with two copper seppas (spacers) and begins with a one-piece brass habaki for a seamless fit.
- Premium Handle and Fittings: The tsuka (handle) is made from hard wood, wrapped tightly in black genuine samegawa (ray skin) and purple synthetic fiber tsuka-ito for a secure grip. The fuchi (sleeve) and kashira (buttcap) are crafted from brass, completing the sword’s traditional look.
- Black Matt Finished Saya: The saya (sheath) is constructed from hardwood with a sleek black matt finish. It features a hardened koiguchi (scabbard mouth) for durability and a bright copper kurigata. The sageo (cord) is made from purple synthetic silk, adding a vibrant contrast.
- Fully Disassemblable: This katana can be fully disassembled and reassembled, making it easy to maintain and customize.
- Free Sword Bag and Certificate: Each katana comes with a complimentary sword bag for storage and a certificate of authenticity to verify its craftsmanship.
