Features of the Ha Katana
The Katana Ha is an extraordinary masterpiece, embodying the ancient art of Japanese sword-making. Designed for discerning enthusiasts and collectors, this Katana is a tribute to the traditional techniques passed down through centuries, from the folding of the steel to the precise quenching and meticulous polishing. Every aspect of this Katana reflects the expertise of master craftsmen, paying homage to the KOBUSE forging method, renowned for its strength and precision.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, this 71 cm blade features a distinctive hamon, a testament to the careful quenching process it has undergone. The Damas Hamon, revealed through meticulous hand polishing, not only adds a stunning visual appeal but also showcases the blade’s strength and cutting precision. The grey blade’s cross-sharpened edge further enhances its sharpness and efficiency, making this Katana as functional as it is elegant.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba is a true work of art, adorned with finely crafted silver and gold details. These intricate embellishments, both subtle and sophisticated, bring a sense of nobility to the Katana while telling a story of tradition and artisanal mastery. Beyond its functional role as a protective guard, the tsuba enhances the aesthetic appeal of the sword, symbolising the dedication to the art of the Katana.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The saya, crafted from solid lacquered wood, reflects a refined simplicity that highlights the purity of the Katana’s lines. The finely braided sageo offers a harmonious contrast, enhancing the traditional look of the scabbard. This combination of noble materials not only ensures the blade’s protection but also elevates the overall luxurious appearance of the Katana, turning it into a true masterpiece.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
Covered in authentic ray skin (galuchat), the tsuka provides a firm and comfortable grip. The granular texture of galuchat, renowned for its durability and grip-enhancing properties, improves the wielder’s control during movements. This prestigious material, traditionally used in Japanese sword-making, adds a touch of refinement and honours the samurai heritage.
