KSA “Jiang” Series Katana – Tatsuoki | Folded Steel (Damascus) Clay Tempered Blade | Sanbonsugi Hamon | Sashikomi Polish | Brown Ishime Saya | Genuine Rayskin | Authentic Kissaki Structure

Tatsuoki katana is named in honor of Saitō Tatsuoki (1548–1573), the last lord of the Saitō clan and ruler of Mino Province during Japan's Sengoku period. Though his rule marked the final chapter of the Saitō family, Tatsuoki remains a notable figure in samurai history. This katana bears his name as a tribute to the legacy of the Saitō clan, combining traditional craftsmanship with understated elegance.

Forged from folded steel (Damascus) using traditional techniques, the blade reveals a refined forged grain created through repeated folding and forge welding. Traditional clay tempering produces a crisp Sanbonsugi hamon, the iconic three-peaked temper line of the Mino tradition. Finished in an authentic sashikomi polish, the blade naturally showcases both the flowing hada and the genuine hamon while preserving the classical beauty of Japanese sword polishing. Combined with a traditional full-tang construction and authentic kissaki geometry, Tatsuoki offers both refined aesthetics and dependable performance.

The koshirae is centered around a brass Maru-gata tsuba featuring a layered lotus petal motif. The radiating lotus petals symbolize purity, harmony, and spiritual awakening, while the warm brass finish enhances the elegant floral design. The fuchi and kashira, crafted from white copper (cupronickel), feature the refined Sakura Ishime pattern, combining delicate cherry blossoms with a traditional stone-textured finish to create a graceful and timeless appearance.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cotton ito over genuine white samegawa, creating a classic black-and-white contrast while providing a secure and comfortable grip. The saya is finished in a rich Brown Ishime lacquer, whose stone-textured surface offers both durability and understated sophistication. A matching black sageo completes the koshirae, reinforcing the sword's balanced and refined character.
