Stone Face Katana – Medium Carbon Steel
The Stone Face Katana is a robust and stylish model. With its dark saya, powerful metal fittings and clear contrasts, this is a sword that combines traditional form with an affordable and functional design.
It is a model for those who want a classic katana with a clear presence without stepping up into the Heritage or Premium segment.
Blade
The blade is made of medium carbon steel and has a clear contrast zone along the edge that gives a hamon-like expression. The finish is clean and functional with a balanced polish.
The Core tier focuses on affordable construction and accessibility rather than advanced multi-layer construction.
Tsuba + Tsuka
The tsuba is richly decorated with silver-tone details, creating a visual contrast to the dark tsuka. Fittings combine light and golden elements, giving the sword a more expressive and decorative appearance.
The tsuka is wrapped in black ito over white samegawa, in classic hineri-maki wrapping, which gives a traditional feel and a stable grip.
Saya
The Saya is lacquered in a deep black tone with a subtle marbled gray structure that gives a stone-like expression, hence the name Stone Face.
The Sageon is black with white details and is tied in a traditional style. The whole gives a dark and controlled impression.
