Black Octopus Katana - Handmade Samurai Sword in T10 Steel
This exclusive katana embodies craftsmanship of the highest caliber.
The blade is forged from high-alloy T10 steel with a visible Hamon (hardening line), providing not only a striking visual impression but also top-tier sharpness and durability. It features a full tang construction, meaning the blade runs through the entire handle for maximum strength and balance.
The hand-carved saya (scabbard) is adorned with an intricate octopus motif, making this katana a unique work of art with strong traditional influences. The tsuba and other fittings are crafted from brass and copper with exceptional detail, including a hand-cast dragon in gold and silver tones. The tsuka-ito (handle wrapping) is made of luxurious suede for enhanced grip and an authentic style.
