Katana 1095 Carbon Steel Sword Unokubi Zukuri Blade

This functional, dark-themed Japanese Katana sword is crafted from 1095 high carbon steel, known for its durability in rigid cutting tests. Its blade has a unokubi-zukuri (blade profile) — ideal for slashing. It has been properly heat-treated, quenched, and polished to achieve the perfect hardness and shine levels.

The blade is a full tang fitted with a double peg for added security. The bohi (groove) reduces weight, and produces a tachikaze (sound of a perfect swing) when slashing. Both the scabbard and handle are of wood, the handle bearing a ray-skin and silk tsuka-maki cover. Enriching the alloy fittings are symbols of Japanese flora and fauna, enhancing peace and prosperity. This affordable Katana stands as the perfect beginner's piece for use in tameshigiri (cutting practice), Iaido, or as decor.
