Katana Damascus Steel Sword Folded Dragon Clay Tempered

This Japanese dragon Katana has a blue motif symbolizing gentleness, forgiveness, and harmony, with connections to the concept of feng shui. The sword is made of high carbon Damascus Steel, folded multiple times, resulting in over 8000 visible blade layers that dance across its blade, mirroring a dragon in mid-air. A traditional clay tempering technique gives it a real hamon and a harder edge.

The handle is wrapped with blue rayskin underneath a black cotton tsuka-maki, enhancing grip strength. Its hardwood scabbard, engraved with a dragon, matches the blue theme and boasts a shiny gloss. The fittings consist of various alloys, brass, and copper, following the dragon motif, just like the scabbard and blade. The blade, double-pegged for stability, can be sharpened making it functional for cutting. Alternatively, it can be ordered unsharpened, ideal for safe Iaido training practicing various kamae (Katana attack/defense stances). A free sword storage bag is included with the order.
