Description

High Carbon Steel Hand-Forged Katana Blade | Clay Tempered | Mirror Polish | Sharp Edge

This katana blade is hand-forged from high carbon steel, carefully crafted to achieve both cutting performance and visual elegance. The blade undergoes clay tempering (differential hardening), which produces a resilient spine with a hardened edge, ensuring a balance of toughness and sharpness.

The polishing is done with attention to detail: the edge area (ji) is refined to a misty white finish, while the shinogi-ji (ridge surface) is polished to a mirror shine. This striking contrast highlights a beautiful hamon line, showcasing the artistry of traditional sword-making. The cutting edge is razor-sharp, making it suitable for both practice and display.

Customization options are available to suit your preference:

  • Bohi (groove): With or without bohi

  • Hamon (temper line): Straight hamon, wave hamon, or clove hamon (chōji)

In addition to katana-sized blades, wakizashi and tanto sizes can also be custom-made. You can also add a Shirasaya, a plain wooden mount used for storage and preservation . For more details, please contact us directly.
