In the revered tradition of the samurai, this full-tang katana is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and martial heritage.
Features:
Full-Tang Construction: The sword features a full-tang build, which extends the metal of the blade into the handle, providing superior balance and structural integrity. This design ensures the katana can withstand the rigors of cutting exercises and combat simulations without compromising its form.
High-Performance Blade: Crafted from T10 carbon steel, the blade offers high performance with its durable construction. T10 carbon steel is renowned for its hardness and ability to retain a sharp edge, making it an ideal choice for a blade that combines functionality with longevity.
Clay Tempering Process: The blade has been clay tempered, a traditional Japanese method used to harden the edge while maintaining a softer spine. This results in a blade that can absorb impacts without breaking and has a real hamon — the distinct wavy pattern along the sharp edge that is not only a mark of the swordsmith's skill but also adds to the blade's aesthetic appeal.
Sharp-Edged Blade: The edge of the blade has been honed to a sharp finish, capable of performing precise cuts. The sharpness of the blade is a testament to the meticulous sharpening process followed by the swordsmith.
Wengewood Handle and Scabbard: Both the handle (tsuka) and the scabbard (saya) are crafted from wengewood, known for its durability and the naturally rich, dark color that gives the katana a distinguished look. The wood grain of wengewood is not only strong but also provides a unique texture that ensures a firm grip and adds to the overall visual appeal of the sword.
Natural Wood Color: The wengewood's natural color is preserved, enhancing the katana's aesthetic with its organic, earthy tones that contrast beautifully with the polished steel of the blade.
This katana is not merely a weapon but a piece of art that reflects the traditional spirit of the samurai, crafted with attention to detail and a deep respect for the sword-making heritage.
