With its expertly crafted T10 steel blade and bold red lacquered scabbard, this Katana is a shining example of Japanese sword craftsmanship, seamlessly blending artistry with formidable functionality.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from high-carbon T10 steel, the blade of the Katana Ketsueki is celebrated for its exceptional cutting power and resistance to wear. The distinctive hamon, achieved through meticulous differential hardening, not only enhances the blade’s structural integrity but also showcases the technical expertise of its makers. The mirror-polished finish further accentuates the blade’s elegance, making it a perfect balance of beauty and performance for practitioners and collectors alike.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba is a testament to both strength and artistic refinement. Intricately adorned with silver-gilded engravings, it serves as a functional guard to protect the wielder’s hand while also adding a touch of sophistication to the Katana. The tsuba’s detailed design complements the overall harmony of the sword, tying its elements together with both practicality and aesthetic finesse.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The vibrant red lacquered saya, crafted from solid wood, makes an immediate impression. This bold design is more than just visually stunning—it offers robust protection for the blade against environmental elements. The traditional cotton sageo, woven with care, not only enhances the scabbard’s aesthetic appeal but also ensures secure carrying during transport, embodying both beauty and practicality.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic white ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka provides an ergonomic and secure grip for precise handling. The granular texture of shagreen is not only durable but also ensures enhanced control, crucial for both training and cutting practice. Copper menuki, adorned with floral motifs that mirror the tsuba’s design, are subtly integrated into the handle, creating a visual and functional cohesion that elevates the Katana’s overall design.
The Katana Ketsueki 血液 is more than just a weapon; it is a martial masterpiece that honors the spirit of the samurai. Its high-carbon T10 steel blade delivers unparalleled sharpness and strength, while the intricately detailed tsuba and daring red scabbard exude elegance and power.
