KSA Signature Series Katana – Guan Yu | Hand-Forged T10 High Carbon Blade | Clay Tempered with Real Hamon | Full Tang | Sashikomi Polish | Hand-Fitted Fittings | Genuine Rayskin | Authentic Kissaki Geometry | Black Ishime Saya | Tight-Fitted Tsuka Core | Martial Arts Practice

Guan Yu is inspired by the legendary warrior Guan Yu (関羽 / 關羽), revered across East Asia as a martial deity and a symbol of loyalty, courage, righteousness, and trust. His stylised face is also the emblem of KatanaSwordArt, making this katana a direct expression of the KSA brand identity. As part of the KSA Signature Series, Guan Yu represents the martial spirit and steadfast character at the heart of the brand.

The blade is hand-forged from T10 high-carbon steel and traditionally clay tempered to produce a genuine Choji Hamon through differential hardening. Finished with Sashikomi polish, the blade presents a refined traditional appearance while allowing the natural hamon to remain clearly visible. Its full-tang construction and authentic kissaki geometry provide both structural reliability and a traditional sword profile.

The koshirae is centred around an iron openwork tsuba featuring the stylised face of Guan Yu, directly reflecting the KatanaSwordArt emblem. It is paired with darkened cupronickel Kyō Ajiro fuchi-kashira, while the tsuka is tightly wrapped in black cotton ito over genuine white samegawa, creating a strong and disciplined monochrome contrast.

A Black Ishime saya and matching black sageo complete the mounting, giving the sword a restrained and powerful appearance. The combination of black, white, and darkened metal reinforces the themes of loyalty, courage, and martial strength that define both Guan Yu and the KSA Signature Series.
