Japanese Samurai Sword

Experience the elegance of the “Haru no Taiyō”, or “Spring Sun”, a Japanese katana that reflects the mastery of traditional swordcraft. This exquisite sword features a blade forged from multi-folded and clay-tempered 1095 carbon steel, showcasing a distinctive hamon and intricate Damascus pattern that highlights the artisanal folding process.

Every aspect of this katana is crafted by hand, including the blade which is meticulously sharpened to a razor edge using Japanese water stones. The saya, enveloped in ray skin and accented with buffalo horn, complements the blade with its exceptional aesthetic.

The differential hardening process ensures that the “Haru no Taiyō” maintains its sharpness even under the most demanding conditions. The handle, traditionally underlaid with genuine ray skin and tightly wrapped in Japanese silk, not only enhances the sword’s authenticity but also its durability and grip.

Ideal for Tameshigiri, this katana allows you to slice through bamboo mats with ease, embodying both the power and grace of the spring sun. With its exquisite blade, elegant gold accents, and remarkable saya, the “Haru no Taiyō” katana stands as a paragon of beauty and functionality, making it a champion among high-end swords.

“The truth is not what you want it to be. It is what it is, and you must bow to its power or live with a lie.“
(Miyamoto Musashi)
