Features of the Nobunaga Katana
The Nobunaga Katana is a striking masterpiece that combines refined aesthetics with outstanding martial performance. Every detail of this Katana has been meticulously crafted to offer both an exceptional handling experience and captivating visual appeal. Designed to evoke nobility and power, it pays homage to the legacy of one of Japan’s legendary warlords, Oda Nobunaga.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from manganese steel, the blade boasts both flexibility and strength, making it ideal for practicing cutting techniques. Its unique golden hue is bold and distinctive, adding an air of prestige and elegance that sets it apart from traditional Katanas. This vibrant color reflects light beautifully, creating a dramatic visual that demands attention.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The finely sculpted copper tsuba serves as both a functional handguard and a work of art. Copper, prized for its corrosion resistance, allows for intricate engravings that give the guard an elegant and protective look. Beyond its practical purpose, the tsuba acts as a visual focal point, adding to the Katana’s aura of nobility.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
Crafted from dense, durable ebony wood, the saya provides solid protection and exudes timeless elegance with its rich, deep finish. The scabbard is further enhanced by a kurigata made from bull horn, a material valued for its strength and natural beauty. The carefully braided sageo adds security during transport and creates a subtle contrast against the ebony, enriching the overall aesthetic.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in genuine ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka ensures a secure, comfortable grip. This material, renowned for its durability and non-slip texture, allows for excellent control when wielding the Katana. Finely detailed copper menuki add an extra touch of elegance, while bamboo mekugi provide structural stability, ensuring that the blade remains securely in place, even during intense training sessions.
