Description
The blade is forged, hammered and folded 'Pattern Welded Steel'. Commonly known as 'Damascus Steel' as the final product is very similar to the steel mined from the Damascus mines of a bygone era.
Our artisan smiths are very talented indeed. With specialized blade smithing techniques, using their vast experience and knowledge they have combined special elements with the various layers of damascus steel. Upon the final blade treatment, the steel grain rather than finishing to different shades of grey, turns different shades of blacks, oranges, & reds. A sight to behold!
KEY FEATURES Fully sharpened blade, forged by artisan smiths. Combination carbon steel, colored blade. Traditional, full thickness blade in "Shinogi-Zukuri" profile. Handguard & handle fittings in dragon motif. Timber handle with genuine stingray skin. Bound with dragon "menuki" handle ornaments. Solid wood sheath finished in satin gloss, textured black lacquer.

*These blades are handmade. Color (darker/ lighter) and grain pattern vary in each.
