Bushido Kiku No Gyokuza Katana, 1 028.7 mm.
Handcrafted in a small town nestled in the Longquan mountains of China’s Zhejiang province, where the tradition of skilled swordmaking began over 2,000 years ago.
Every part of this sword is expertly crafted by highly skilled smiths using centuries-old methods. The blade is pattern welded, with most of the blade Rockwelling in the 40-45 HRC range and about 35 HRC at the guard. The simulated hamon is expertly applied by an artisan. Each blade is honed and must be able to cleanly cut through a sheet of paper before it leaves the factory.
The tsuba and pommel are emblazoned with floral patterns. The tsuba has an open lattice design that resembles/symbolizes a blossom. The tsuba, pommel and the fuchigashira (the collar next to the tsuba) are made of brass and given an aged finish. The grip is genuine Rayskin wrapped with cord.
The wood scabbard has an attractive deep burgundy finish with glossy black “paint splatters” and a handsome black and burgundy cord wrap.
