Features of the Orochi Katana
The Katana Orochi is a true masterpiece of martial craftsmanship, embodying the expertise and dedication of ancient Japanese swordsmiths. Designed for those who demand the highest standard of quality, this Katana blends beauty, power, and precision in every detail.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from high-carbon T10 steel, the blade is celebrated for its strength and exceptional edge retention. The hamon, carefully crafted, displays a striking flame-like pattern achieved through expert selective tempering. This distinctive hamon not only demonstrates the swordsmith’s skill but also enhances the blade’s hardness. The mirror polish reveals the refined lines of the blade, making it both visually stunning and incredibly precise for cutting.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The golden sculpted copper tsuba is both an aesthetic and functional part of the Katana. Each engraved detail highlights the refinement of Japanese artistry. Chosen for its malleability and durability, the copper tsuba gracefully ages over time, developing a rich patina. Its weight also contributes to the Katana’s perfect balance, ensuring smooth and harmonious handling.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The ebony wood saya offers optimal protection for the blade while adding a sophisticated touch. Ebony is renowned for its density and durability, shielding the blade from external elements. The kurigata, crafted from bull horn, provides a unique and exclusive detail, combining robustness with elegance. The sageo, carefully woven, secures to the saya, ensuring safe transport.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in genuine ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka provides a textured, non-slip grip for precise and safe handling. Shagreen, valued for its durability and luxurious look, gives the handle a unique feel. Golden copper menuki, carefully positioned, add a decorative accent while enhancing the grip for optimal control during use.
Structure
Two bamboo mekugi ensure a solid connection between the blade and handle, allowing for traditional disassembly for maintenance. This system, passed down from ancient sword-making techniques, guarantees the Katana’s longevity and reliability.
The Katana Orochi embodies both power and elegance, merging the discipline of Japanese sword-making with sophisticated design. This Katana is for those who seek not only a functional weapon for practice but also a collector’s item, paying tribute to the Bushido heritage with every use and display.
