Battle-Ready Crimson Ember Katana (1060 Carbon Steel)
Introducing the Battle-Ready Crimson Ember Katana (1060 Carbon Steel), a superb creation from MOSHIRO, crafted using the traditional Muku-kitae method. This katana is made from 1060 high carbon steel, known for its durability and ability to retain a razor-sharp edge. The blade, hardened to 55 HRC, showcases a genuine hamon, created through meticulous tempering processes—distinct from the wire-brushed or printed hamon found in lesser quality swords.
The blade of this remarkable sword can flex up to 45 degrees, demonstrating both its strength and flexibility, similar to those of far more expensive models. To maintain affordability without compromising quality, the tsuba is machine-made, yet it complements the sword beautifully along with the well-crafted steel fuchi and kashira. The brass habaki enhances the blade's aesthetic and structural integrity.
This sword is exceptionally balanced, featuring a tight handle wrap over real ray skin that ensures a comfortable and secure grip. It comes complete with a hardwood handle fitted with dual bamboo mekugi (pegs), allowing for easy disassembly for care or display purposes.
The scabbard is as stunning as the sword itself, with a high-quality piano red paint finish that adds a striking contrast to the traditional look. This katana is not just a functional weapon but also a piece of art, ideal for cutting, training, or as a centerpiece in any collection.
Included with the sword is a black cotton storage bag, ensuring that it remains in pristine condition whether at rest or in transit.
Experience the fusion of beauty, functionality, and affordability with the Battle-Ready Crimson Ember Katana (1060 Carbon Steel)—a must-have for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
