Features of the Fukkatsu Katana
The Katana Fukkatsu 復活 is a true testament to traditional Japanese craftsmanship, combining refined aesthetics with exceptional performance. Designed for both demanding practitioners and discerning collectors, this Katana is not just functional but a majestic work of art.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Hand-forged from T10 steel, the 72 cm blade is distinguished by its intricate hamon, visible along its entire length. This stunning detail, achieved through differential hardening, not only highlights the traditional craftsmanship behind the blade but also ensures exceptional cutting performance. The combination of form and function in the blade is a perfect example of artisanal mastery.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The finely sculpted copper tsuba is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Adorned with gold and silver floral motifs, it adds a touch of luxury and elegance to the Katana, while also playing a crucial role in protecting the hand during use. These refined details symbolise the balance between nature and strength, paying tribute to the enduring traditions of the samurai.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The black lacquered wooden saya exudes understated elegance with a touch of refinement. The sageo, woven in green and white, creates a striking contrast against the deep black lacquer, lending an air of authenticity and freshness to the design. This harmonious combination makes the scabbard both aesthetically pleasing and functional, ensuring optimal protection for the blade.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
The tsuka, wrapped in authentic white shagreen, provides a secure and comfortable grip, ideal for precise and safe handling of the Katana. Known for its granular and durable texture, the shagreen enhances the handle’s strength and longevity. Copper menuki, subtly integrated into the wrap, add a final touch of elegance and craftsmanship to the handle.
