Katana “Dentō-Teki”

Introducing the “Dentō-Teki” samurai katana, embodying the essence of Japanese “Tradition”. This sword is crafted from clay-tempered 1095 carbon steel, featuring a distinct hamon pattern. The saya is beautifully adorned with traditional Japanese carvings, adding to its artistic value.

The blade is sharpened using Japanese waterstones to achieve a razor-sharp edge and a mirror-like polish. Unlike standard katanas, this model boasts intricate handle details with real gold and silver, enhancing its luxurious appeal.

Ideal for tameshigiri, the art of katana cutting, the “Dentō-Teki” slices through bamboo mats effortlessly. Its superior craftsmanship, unique handle design, and the adorned saya with genuine silver, gold, and Japanese artwork make it a standout among high-end Japanese swords.

“The art of blacksmithing is the harmonious beauty that arises from fire and iron.”
