Features of the Dentō Katana
The Katana Dentō 伝統 perfectly embodies the fusion of ancient tradition and modern craftsmanship, offering both strength and aesthetics that reflect the splendour of Japanese sword-making art. This Katana is a true homage to the samurai legacy, designed to combine power, elegance, and performance in every detail.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Expertly forged, the 71 cm blade combines two exceptional types of steel. The core is made of T10 steel, renowned for its high carbon content, ensuring enhanced strength and durability. The outer layer, forged from Damascus steel with a distinct hamon, delivers an unparalleled cutting edge while offering visual beauty through its characteristic wave-like patterns. The hamon, revealed through meticulous stone polishing, showcases the artisan’s skill and adds an artistic dimension to this functional blade.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The tsuba, crafted from pure copper, is a true work of art. Intricately carved and adorned with gold and silver details, it represents the perfect balance between protection and aesthetics. Each engraving is executed with extraordinary precision, symbolising the tradition and soul of the master swordsmiths who carry forward this centuries-old craft.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, made from lacquered wood, enhances the refined silhouette of the Katana with its smooth and gleaming finish. The carefully applied lacquer not only increases the scabbard’s durability but also preserves the timeless elegance of the weapon. Its polished and sleek surface reflects the inner beauty of the blade it protects.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Wrapped in authentic shagreen (stingray leather), the tsuka ensures a firm and comfortable grip. Shagreen, valued for its granular texture and durability, provides excellent traction while adding a touch of luxury to the sword. This material enhances both the functionality and the visual appeal of the Katana, making it as practical as it is beautiful.

With an overall length of 104 cm, a blade width of 3.2 cm, and a thickness of 0.7 cm, the Katana Dentō is engineered to offer a perfect balance between manoeuvrability and imposing presence. Its construction ensures fluid movement while maintaining a majestic aura.
