Features of the Owari Katana
The Owari Katana is an exceptional masterpiece, embodying the finest elements of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. For practitioners and collectors alike, this Katana represents both beauty and functionality, making it a true work of art.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from purple Damascus steel, the blade is a remarkable blend of technical skill and visual allure. Known for its intricate patterns and outstanding durability, Damascus steel ensures superior sharpness and resilience. The unique purple hue adds a sense of mystique and elegance, symbolizing nobility and strength. Ideal for both demonstrations and practice, this blade combines aesthetics and performance seamlessly.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The finely crafted copper tsuba exemplifies elegance and tradition. Copper, chosen for its durability and resistance to corrosion, ensures long-lasting performance with a luxurious finish. Each detail is meticulously sculpted, making the guard not just a protective feature but a central element of the Katana’s refined aesthetic.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
Inspired by the tachi style, the saya showcases sophisticated craftsmanship. Adorned with traditional fittings like the obitori, kanagu, kashiwaba, and kogiri, these details enhance its distinguished appearance. The extended tsuka-ito cord on the saya not only contributes to its visual appeal but also improves grip, allowing for graceful, precise handling.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in genuine ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka provides a secure and comfortable grip. Valued for its textured surface and durability, ray skin ensures excellent adhesion even during rigorous practice. This high-quality material is commonly used in premium Katanas due to its longevity and refined look.
Ornaments (Menuki) and Fixation (Mekugi)
The copper menuki and mekugi not only provide structural integrity but add a unique visual touch. Every detail has been crafted to complement the Katana’s overall design, adding a touch of luxury while ensuring the sword’s stability and security.
