Features of the Kengen Katana
The Kengen Katana is an extraordinary piece, expertly forged using the ancient San-Mai technique, offering an ideal balance of strength and flexibility. This Katana combines aesthetic beauty with exceptional performance, crafted for collectors and martial arts practitioners who seek a top-tier blade.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Crafted using the San-Mai technique, the blade has a T10 steel core encased in Damascus steel with a distinct hamon. This triple-layered construction provides incredible rigidity along the sides while keeping flexibility at the core, allowing it to withstand heavy impact without breaking. The result is a razor-sharp blade that performs with remarkable precision and resilience, ideal for smooth, effortless cuts.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba is exquisitely adorned with gold and silver inlays, adding a refined, majestic quality to the Katana. Designed to protect the hands while also serving as a decorative focal point, the tsuba showcases traditional Japanese artistry. Copper is not only durable but also naturally antimicrobial and develops a unique patina over time, adding character to each Katana.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, crafted from solid wood, is finished with a rich, deep green lacquer inspired by the look of ray skin. This luxurious finish not only provides a stunning contrast to the blade but also protects it from environmental elements, enhancing the Katana’s long-term durability. The lacquer’s texture and resilience make it essential for preserving the Katana’s pristine condition over time.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic ray skin, the tsuka ensures a secure and comfortable grip. The textured surface of the ray skin, known for its durability and resistance to wear, enhances handling safety and comfort while adding a refined look. This premium material is a favorite choice for high-quality Katanas, elevating both the tactile and visual experience for the user.
The Kengen Katana is the perfect blend of tradition and innovation, offering a superior blade that balances flexibility and durability thanks to the San-Mai forging technique. With refined details like a copper tsuba with gold and silver inlays and a deep green lacquered scabbard, this Katana is both functional and visually striking. Ideal for Japanese weapon enthusiasts, it is a true work of art that impresses as much in use as it does in appearance.
