Musashi Yamata no Orochi Katana
Product Description
From the Musashi Gold Hogosha Series comes this intricately hand crafted limited edition Yamata no Orochi Katana. Made using the Maru-kitae hand forged technique with 1095 high carbon steel, the result is a beautiful blade with a distinct hamon pattern.
The Mokko Gata style tsuba tells the Japanese legend of the eight headed serpent. The detail tsuba depicts the lone warrior in combat with the serpent to save Japan from calamity. The wood handle is ray skin wrapped in traditional black cotton cord. It also features iron Fuchi and kashira.
An additional feature is the integrated Bo-Hi on the blade. Bo-Hi are commonly known as blood grooves, but that is a misconception. The purpose of the Bo-Hi is to help reduce the weight of the katana, and actually has nothing to do with channeling blood. Making the Katana lighter enables the user to weld the katana more smoothly and puts less stress on the hands. Not to mention it benefits some advance cutting techniques that require the katana to change direction rapidly.
Included with this katana is a maintenance kit to make sure your katana lasts a lifetime as well as a premium sword bag, deluxe gift box, Certificate of Authenticity. Each sword is individually numbered on the tang.
