'Eternal Dragon' Samurai Master Katana
Add a legendary blade to your collection with the 'Eternal Dragon' Samurai Master Katana.
Legendary dragon-inspired design. Exceptional craftsmanship. Traditional Japanese forging.
Featuring a 1095 high-carbon steel blade with Honsanmai (San Mai) lamination, genuine clay tempering and hand-carved blade artwork, this exceptional katana is a magnificent centrepiece for any serious sword collection.
Eternal Dragon features a hand-forged 1095 high-carbon steel blade, constructed using the traditional Honsanmai (San Mai) lamination technique.
This method combines different steels in a layered construction, designed to balance edge hardness with structural toughness.
The blade also undergoes differential clay tempering, creating a harder cutting edge while retaining greater resilience along the spine.
The result is a genuine natural hamon (temper line), complemented by intricate hand-carved blade detailing and a traditional no-bo-hi design.
The wooden tsuka (handle) features genuine stingray skin (samegawa) beneath traditional cotton handle wrapping (tsukamaki).
Its hardwood saya (scabbard) is beautifully decorated with mother-of-pearl engraving and genuine buffalo horn fittings, finished with an elegant black silk sageo.
The handmade brass tsuba and fittings feature silver and gold plating, adding a luxurious finishing touch worthy of the Eternal Dragon name.
Combining San Mai laminated 1095 steel, genuine clay tempering and intricate hand-carved artwork, Eternal Dragon celebrates the artistry and heritage of Japanese sword-making.
With its luxurious gold and silver-plated fittings, mother-of-pearl saya and premium presentation accessories, this is an exceptional addition to any Minamoto collection.
Includes wooden presentation box, silk sleeve, cleaning kit and display stand.
Please note: This is a high-carbon steel collector's sword intended for responsible adult ownership and display.
