Features of the Dentō Katana
The Katana Dentō 伝統 embodies the fusion of ancient tradition and modern craftsmanship, combining strength and aesthetics that celebrate the artistry of Japanese sword-making. This Katana is a tribute to the samurai legacy, designed to blend power, elegance, and performance in every detail.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Expertly forged, the 71 cm blade merges two exceptional types of steel. The core is crafted from T10 steel, known for its high carbon content, which delivers enhanced strength and durability. The outer layer, forged from Damascus steel, creates a distinct hamon with its characteristic wave-like patterns, providing both cutting precision and stunning visual appeal. This hamon, revealed through meticulous stone polishing, reflects the skill of the artisan and adds an artistic element to this functional blade.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The tsuba, made from pure copper, is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. Intricately carved with gold and silver accents, it achieves the perfect blend of protection and aesthetics. Each engraving is executed with extraordinary precision, capturing the tradition and spirit of the master swordsmiths who carry forward this centuries-old craft.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, made from lacquered wood, enhances the refined silhouette of the Katana with its smooth, gleaming finish. The carefully applied lacquer not only increases the scabbard’s durability but also preserves the timeless elegance of the weapon. Its polished surface reflects the inner beauty of the blade it protects, merging durability with sophistication.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic shagreen (ray skin), the tsuka offers a firm and comfortable grip. Shagreen, valued for its textured surface and durability, provides exceptional traction while adding a touch of luxury to the sword. This material enhances both the functionality and visual appeal of the Katana, making it as practical as it is beautiful.
