From the Musashi Silver series comes this intricately hand-crafted “Kurēn” (Crane) Katana by Master Sword Smith Shen Zhou. Hand-forged using 1060 high-carbon steel, it is a must-have katana for any serious collector or practitioner of the way of the samurai. The blade has gone through a clay-tempering process and features a real hamon.
The blade's polish is almost mirror-like. You can see your reflections on the blade. The handle is real ray skin wrapped in a brown cotton cord. The kiku gata style tsuba features a traditional Japanese crane design. The black wooden saya holds the katana securely until you're ready to use it.
