Features of the Sabana Katana
The Katana Sabana サバンナ, inspired by the vast and majestic African plains, embodies both elegance and strength in every detail. Crafted with remarkable artisanal precision, this Katana reflects the fine balance between natural grace and untamed power.
Blade (Tōshin 刀身)
Forged from T10 steel, the blade of the Katana Sabana is renowned for its exceptional durability and ability to maintain a razor-sharp edge. This high-quality steel, often favoured for its toughness, is further enhanced by a wave-patterned hamon, reminiscent of the fluid movement of the wind across the savannah. The mirror-polished finish accentuates the beauty of the blade while enhancing its ability to perform precise and effective cuts. T10 steel guarantees unparalleled durability, making this Katana perfect for intensive use while being aesthetically striking.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔)
The copper tsuba, intricately sculpted, is adorned with gold and silver motifs that evoke the richness and diversity of African flora. This metal, prized for its malleability and corrosion resistance, lends the guard a reliable robustness while adding a touch of nobility and authenticity. In addition to its decorative appeal, the tsuba offers solid hand protection, contributing to the overall balance of the Katana.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘)
The red lacquered wooden saya is a visual masterpiece. Decorated with tiger motifs symbolising power and agility—two essential qualities in the art of swordsmanship—this scabbard is crafted from robust wood, providing optimal protection for the blade. The smooth and glossy lacquer adds extra resistance to the elements, ensuring the longevity of the weapon.
Handle (Tsuka 柄)
The tsuka, wrapped in authentic white shagreen, offers superior grip thanks to the distinctive textured surface of the material. Shagreen, known for its durability and excellent adhesion, ensures precise and secure handling of the Katana. Copper menuki and bamboo mekugi, subtly integrated, provide not only perfect balance but also impeccable structural strength, enabling smooth and safe manoeuvrability.
