United Cutlery Shikoto Teal Katana

Experience the power of a warrior with the Shikoto Teal Katana, crafted using the same techniques used 2,500 years ago by Bronze Age swordsmiths, the 1060 high carbon steel blade has been hammer-forged and clay tempered to produce a visible hamon line. Differential hardening gives this magnificent sword a harder cutting edge and a softer spine, which is the hallmark of a high-quality weapon. The tsuba and handle fittings are of solid brass with an aged bronze finish and the wooden handle has teal traditional cord wrapping over genuine, tea-dyed ray skin. A black lacquered and polished wooden scabbard with cord wrapping houses the blade. Also included with this full tang Shikoto Longquan Master Teal Katana is a certificate of authenticity with forging specifications, signed by the master swordsmith who crafted the blade.
