Forged for Power – T-10 Blade with Traditional Geometry

• Crafted from premium T-10 high-speed tool steel, renowned for its hardness and edge retention.
• Built with a commanding widened mihaba (blade width), delivering cutting power and strong visual presence.
• Fitted with a large, elegant ō-kissaki (extended tip), ideal for both cutting and thrusting applications.
• Midare hamon (wavy temper line) created through clay tempering and enhanced by expert polishing.
• Forged using traditional differential hardening methods – no shortcuts, no synthetic effects.

Tsuka – Artisan-Level Wrapping with Hishigami

• Tsuka is professionally wrapped by hand in the Hineri-maki style, ensuring structure, tension, and martial reliability.
• Covered in reddish-black Japanese silk ito over antique-finish samegawa (ray skin) for aesthetic contrast.
• Features traditional hishigami inserts under the ito, creating firmness and uniform diamond patterns – a key marker of expert tsukamaki.

Japanese Fittings – Authentic Symbolism & Elegance

• Tsuba, fuchi, and kashira are made in Japan and feature the Ajiro Gata pattern – a traditional woven bamboo motif symbolizing order and resilience.
• Menuki also made in Japan, decorated with the Tokugawa mon – the triple hollyhock crest that represented one of the most powerful shogun families in history.

Saya – Glossy Finish with Natural Materials

• Constructed from lacquered hardwood in a black glossy kuroro finish for a sleek, formal appearance.
• Fitted with koiguchi, kojiri, and kurikata made of genuine buffalo horn – more durable and aesthetically superior to synthetic materials.
