Features of the Jundo Katana
The Katana Jundo is a masterful blend of Japanese tradition and functional design, ideal for both beginners and collectors. Whether for practising the art of cutting or serving as an elegant decorative piece, this Katana combines precision with timeless aesthetic appeal.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, the Katana Jundo’s blade offers outstanding strength and durability. Known for its edge retention, T10 steel ensures precise and reliable cutting performance. The visible hamon along the blade reflects the traditional selective hardening technique, adding a striking visual element while highlighting the craftsmanship behind the forging process. This grey-toned blade balances visual finesse with cutting power, making it ideal for both training and demonstrations.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The finely sculpted brass tsuba pays tribute to traditional Japanese artistry. Featuring intricate detailing, it adds a touch of sophistication while providing reliable hand protection. Brass, valued for its natural resistance to corrosion and balanced weight, enhances handling by stabilising the centre of gravity, making the sword feel well-balanced in use.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
Crafted from solid lacquered wood, the saya is designed to protect the blade while adding sophistication with its polished finish. The lacquer enhances the wood’s natural beauty and increases durability, shielding the scabbard from external elements and minor damage.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in genuine ray skin (shagreen), the tsuka provides a non-slip, durable grip. This material, combined with traditional braiding, ensures a secure and comfortable hold. The solid wood core of the handle withstands regular use while offering optimal ergonomics, allowing for precise blade control.
The Katana Jundo is more than an introductory Katana; it’s a work of art that seamlessly merges tradition with modern craftsmanship, with meticulous attention given to every detail. Whether you’re seeking a functional tool for Tameshigiri or an elegant display piece, this Katana excels with its refined aesthetics and reliable performance.
