Features
Gomai (5-Piece Laminated Pattern Steel) Construction
The blade is traditionally hand-forged utilizing the revered Gomai lamination technique—combining five distinct sections of pattern steel and carbon steel forge-welded into a unified matrix. This advanced metallurgy pairs hard edge steel for exceptional edge retention with resilient jacket and core steels for supreme shock absorption.
Clay Tempered with Real Hamon
Differentially clay tempered by master smiths to produce an undulating natural Hamon. The edge is quenched rapidly to achieve an impressive ~60 HRC hardness, while the spine retains shock-absorbing flexibility.
Genuine Top-Grain Cowhide Leather Scabbard
The scabbard (Saya) features a reinforced inner core of solid wood and copper, completely encased in thickened, authentic top-grain yellow cowhide leather. This provides a rugged, tactile vintage military aesthetic that develops a rich natural patina over time.
Hand-Carved Antique Pure Copper Mountings
The Tsuba, collar, pommel, and hangers are sculpted from solid pure copper and treated with an antique patinated finish, ensuring structural durability and cohesive vintage presentation.
