Katana T10 Steel Sword Clay Tempered Hawk Koshirae

This is a Japanese Katana samurai sword, boasting a golden, shiny scabbard, inspired by the respected Japanese hawk theme, a symbol of boldness, bravery, and fighting spirit since ancient times. It embodies the ancient proverb, "A wise hawk hides its talents," depicting a highly skilled individual. The Katana is crafted from a rigid and flexible T10 high carbon steel, authentically clay-tempered for a true choji-hamon, and water-quenched for optimal hardness.

The handle, adorned with a double-peg for security, is wrapped in rayskin and hineri-maki (a cord wrap style) to enhance grip stability and control. The scabbard is crafted from hardwood and features bull horn mountings smeared in a golden shade sprinkled with specks. Its hawk-themed fittings, made entirely from copper, show the bird in a vibrant white color. This sword allows assembly/disassembly, making it a perfect functional cutting piece when sharpened. Unsharpened, it is suitable for Iaido, or as an element to enrich home decoration with the stunning aesthetics of a Japanese samurai hawk.
