Ronin Katana Dojo Pro Model #12

This fierce and daunting looking katana is Ronin Katana's Dojo Pro Katana Model #12, forged from 1060 steel and through hardened. It features a double ring tsuba, made popular by the famous samurai Miyamoto Musashi. The fuchi kashira (hilt collar and pommel cap) is made of blackened iron and the brass menuki is painted gold to allow it to stand out in contrast to the rest of the sword.

The tsuka (handle) is covered with white same (rayskin) and the tight tsukamaki uses a black silk ito. The saya (scabbard) is glossy black lacquered with the mountings (koiguchi - mouth of saya, kurigata - knob for sageo, kojiri - scabbard end cap) made of hand cut and polished buffalo horn. The black synthetic silk sageo is thick and durable.
