Masame-hada（柾目肌）and Mokume-hada（杢目肌）patterns are visible on the surface, showing straight and swirling grain from repeated folding. A Gunome-midare hamon（互の目乱れ刃文）runs along the edge, created through clay tempering（覆土焼入れ）. The saya（鞘）is finished with dripping-gold lacquer（滴金塗り）and fitted with buffalo horn（牛角）at the koiguchi（口金）, kurigata（栗形）, and kojiri（鞘尻）. A green sageo（緑色下緒）is tied at the side. The tsuka（柄）is wrapped in green ito（緑色糸）using hineri-maki（捻巻）over aged samegawa（古風仕上げの鮫皮）. Hishigami（菱紙）form diamond patterns under the wrap. The menuki（目貫）, made of blackened white copper（煮黒白銅）, are shaped as sword-dragons（剣龍）. The fuchi and kashira（縁頭）, made from blackened white copper, are engraved with wave-dragon（波龍）motifs. The tsuba（鍔）is a Maru-gata（丸形）design forged from white copper（白銅）with a blackened finish（煮黒仕上げ）. The surface shows dragons, clouds, waves, and rocks（雲・龍・波・岩）.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr align=\"center\" width=\"100%\" size=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTangGu (\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK5;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: DengXian; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;\" lang=\"ZH-CN\"\u003e湯谷\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e Kobuse Blade\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis blade is hand-forged (Tezukuri \/ 手作り) , following the principles of Japanese swordsmithing.

Kobuse-zukuri（甲伏造）construction, where a hardened steel jacket surrounds a softer core. The blade surface shows Masame-hada（柾目肌）and Mokume-hada（杢目肌）, with straight-grained lines and wood-like textures. Along the edge is a Gunome-midare hamon（互の目乱れ刃文）formed through clay tempering（覆土焼入れ \/ Fukutsuchi Yakiire）. The saya（鞘）is finished in uginuri lacquer（烏金塗 \/ Uginuri）with reflective particles. Buffalo horn fittings（牛角）reinforce the koiguchi（口金）, kurigata（栗形）, and kojiri（鞘尻）. A golden-yellow sageo（黄色下緒）is tied at the side. The tsuka（柄）is wrapped in golden-yellow ito（黄色糸）using hineri-maki（捻巻）over hon-samegawa（本鮫皮 \/ genuine ray skin）with kofū shiage（古風仕上げ）. Hishigami（菱紙）form a diamond pattern. The menuki（目貫）in blackened white copper（煮黒白銅）are shaped as wave motifs（波文）. The fuchi and kashira（縁頭）, made of blackened white copper（煮黒白銅）, are engraved with wave patterns（波文）. The tsuba（鍔）is a mokko-gata（木瓜形）guard made of white copper（白銅）with a blackened finish（煮黒仕上げ）.

Maru-zukuri (丸造) construction from hand-forged and folded high-carbon steel (折り返し鍛錬高炭素鋼). The surface reveals Ushimo-hada (牛毛肌), a variation within the Masame-hada (柾目肌) category, showing fine ox-hair-like straight grain lines. The edge displays a flowing notare (湾刃) hamon, formed through traditional clay tempering (覆土焼入れ \/ Fukutsuchi Yakiire). The blade is shaped in shinogi-zukuri (鎬造) geometry with an iori-mune (庵棟) spine and a chū-kissaki (中切先, medium-sized tip). The koshirae (拵) features a round steel maru-gata tsuba (丸形鍔), openworked and carved with a serpent motif (蛇図), finished with a deep black patina (煮黒 \/ Nuriguro). The fuchi-kashira (縁頭) are also steel with black patina, decorated with matching serpent designs to harmonize with the guard. The tsuka (柄) is wrapped in brown ito (茶柄糸) over natural samegawa (本鮫皮) ray skin, reinforced with hishigami (菱紙) to form a precise hishi-gumi (菱組) diamond pattern. The saya (鞘) is finished in black lacquer decorated with silver flecks, creating a starry night appearance (星空塗) with a glossy surface. The koiguchi (鞘口), kojiri (鞘尻), and kurigata (栗形) are reinforced with buffalo horn (牛角) for durability. A brown sageo (茶下緒) is traditionally tied to the kurigata, completing the elegant and cohesive mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr align=\"center\" width=\"100%\" size=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTangGu (\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK5;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: DengXian; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;\" lang=\"ZH-CN\"\u003e湯谷\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e Folded Steel Blade\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is hand-forged (Tezukuri \/ 手作り) using folded forging (折り返し鍛錬) from high-carbon steel (高炭素鋼), \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlade Forging Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\" style=\"margin-top: 0cm;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l6 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBlade Name\u003c\/b\u003e: TangGu Traditionally Forged \u0026amp; Folded Maru Blade (丸造, 折り返し鍛錬)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l6 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003ca name=\"OLE_LINK12\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca name=\"OLE_LINK9\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK12;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eForging Method\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK12;\"\u003e: This blade is\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ehand-forged and folded in the \u003cem data-start=\"189\" data-end=\"202\"\u003eMaru-zukuri\u003c\/em\u003e (丸造) style from high-carbon steel (折り返し鍛錬高炭素鋼).

The surface reveals Masame-hada (柾目肌) — fine straight grain lines symbolizing steadfast discipline — while the Notare hamon (湾刃) undulates gently like ripples across still water. Fitted in Seiryū Koshirae (青龍拵), the fittings are crafted from silver-bronze patinated in black (白銅煮黑) and intricately carved with wave-and-dragon reliefs, symbolizing wisdom and power in harmony. The saya (鞘) is finished in an elegant Uchigane-nuri (烏金塗) lacquer, where deep black mingles with warm copper tones, resembling the hidden glow of molten fire beneath the sea’s surface. A dark navy tsuka-ito complements the theme of calm authority, paired with a chocolate-brown sageo, bringing visual balance to this refined ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr align=\"center\" width=\"100%\" size=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTangGu (\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK5;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: DengXian; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;\" lang=\"ZH-CN\"\u003e湯谷\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e Sanmai Blade\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis blade is hand-forged (Tezukuri \/ 手作り), Sanmai-zukuri（三枚造）construction, with a hard edge forge-welded between two softer outer layers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlade Forging Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\" style=\"margin-top: 0cm;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l6 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBlade Name\u003c\/b\u003e: TangGu Traditionally Forged Sanmai \u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK8;\"\u003eBlade\u003c\/span\u003e (\u003cspan style=\"font-family: DengXian; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;\" lang=\"ZH-CN\"\u003e三枚造\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l6 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003ca name=\"OLE_LINK12\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca name=\"OLE_LINK9\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK12;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eForging Method\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK12;\"\u003e: \u003cspan\u003eThis blade is forged in the Sanmai-zukuri（三枚造）style, with a hard steel core forge-welded between two layers of softer outer steel.

The koshirae features a mokko-gata tsuba (木瓜形鍔) forged from tetsu (鉄地, iron) with openwork axe motifs (斧図透かし).

The tsuka is wrapped in deep navy blue ito (濃紺柄糸) over natural white samegawa (白鮫皮), with hishigami (菱紙) forming a precise diamond pattern (菱組). The saya is finished in a glossy crimson red lacquer (赤漆塗り鞘) with a subtle sparkling effect, creating an ember-like shimmer under light.
