Features

Hand-Forged T10 High-Carbon Tool Steel Blade
Crafted from high-purity T10 carbon steel, celebrated among master sword smiths for its high wear resistance, exceptional edge-holding capability, and structural resilience under cutting stress.

Differential Clay Tempering with Real Hamon
Clay tempered using classical Japanese techniques. The cutting edge is rapidly quenched to achieve superior hardness (~60 HRC), while the spine cools slowly to retain shock-absorbing elasticity, revealing an authentic, undulating natural Hamon.

Natural Solid Black Ebony Wood Scabbard
Both the scabbard (Saya) and handle are hand-carved from matching billets of authentic high-density black ebony wood. The wood is hand-sanded and polished to highlight its deep, rich natural grain without thick synthetic lacquers, providing a warm, tactile organic grip.

Traditional Tachi Mountings
Fitted with classical Tachi hardware including the distinctive Ashi hangers, allowing the sword to be suspended in the historical cavalry manner (edge downward when worn, edge upward when displayed on a Tachi stand).

Full Tang Construction
The tang extends throughout the entire 27cm handle in the classical manner, anchored securely to ensure structural durability, balanced weight distribution, and handling safety.
