Experience the Artistry of the Folded Steel Katana:
This Japanese folded steel katana is a masterpiece of traditional craftsmanship. Meticulously hand forged, hand polished, and hand sharpened, it stands as a testament to the time-honored art of sword making.
Exceptional Blade Craftsmanship:
Crafted from folded steel with an astonishing 8192 layers, this blade exhibits remarkable flexibility and hardness. The visible undulating grain, a result of the repeated folding during forging, showcases the sword’s exceptional quality.
A special clay application by skilled hands, with a thin covering near the edge and a thicker layer on the rest of the blade, gives rise to a genuine hamon (temper line) during the clay temper process. This unique combination of toughness and flexibility sets this blade apart.
Hand polished with multiple-grade sharpening stones following the Japanese method, the blade’s surface mirrors its impeccable craftsmanship.
The full tang construction of the blade enhances its strength, ensuring durability and reliability.
Elegant Dragon Design:
The dragon design brass tsuba (guard) is both functional and ornate, serving as a symbol of power and protection.
Two copper seppas (spacers) securely fasten the tsuba, ensuring stability during use.
Impeccable Handle and Sheath:
The wooden tsuka (handle) is meticulously wrapped with black genuine Ray skin Samegawa and brown synthetic silk Ito, providing both comfort and visual appeal.
Two dragon design brass menuki ornaments grace the handle, adding a touch of artistry.
The saya (sheath) features a black high-gloss finish with a distinctive speckle pattern. Crafted from hard wood, it provides secure storage for the katana.
The Koiguchi (scabbard mouth) has been hardened for added durability, and a thick brown synthetic Sage-O cord is expertly tied around the bright copper Kurigaga (knob) of the scabbard.
Versatile and Exceptional:
This katana is a versatile choice suitable not only for dojo and iaido practice but also as a thoughtful gift, a striking display piece, and a cherished collector’s item.
It is an invitation to experience the rich heritage and exquisite craftsmanship of Japanese sword making.
