Experience the spirit of the samurai with this masterfully crafted Japanese Katana. A testament to centuries of tradition, this sword embodies the artistry and discipline of seasoned swordsmiths, making it a distinguished piece for any martial arts practitioner or collector of historical weapons.
The soul of this katana is its formidable blade, hand-forged from high-grade T10 carbon steel. To achieve an authentic and visually striking Hamon line, the blade undergoes a traditional clay tempering and water quenching process. This demanding technique not only creates a beautiful, unique pattern but also results in a blade that balances resilience with a fine edge, a hallmark of superior Japanese samurai swords.
Built for integrity and strength, this sword features a full tang construction, ensuring the blade and handle are a single, solid piece of steel. This provides exceptional balance and durability, essential for both the practitioner and the discerning collector. Following traditional Japanese methods, the edge is meticulously hand-honed to a fine point, showcasing the smith's expert skill.
This impressive katana measures an overall length of 103cm, with a 72cm blade (nagasa) and a 26cm handle (tsuka). The blade material is T10 carbon steel, complemented by a black cord-wrapped handle, a protective black saya (scabbard), and elegant alloy fittings, including the black iron tsuba.
