Description
The Kagemaru Katana (影丸), translated as “Shadow Circle,” embodies the essence of stealth and strength. Its all-black composition conveys discipline and power, reminiscent of the silent warriors of old Japan.
Blade (刀身): Forged from high-density manganese steel, the blade exhibits a distinct wavy hamon pattern along its edge, enhancing both aesthetics and balance. The precision polish highlights the harmony between edge sharpness and structure.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): Crafted from pure iron, the tsuba’s intricate openwork floral design adds depth and artistry to the weapon, symbolizing elegance within power.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The lacquered black saya mirrors the calm of night, creating a sleek silhouette that complements the minimalist philosophy of the sword.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): The tsuka is wrapped in black cord over a textured underlay, ensuring superior grip and perfect visual continuity with the rest of the blade.
Simple yet commanding, the Kagemaru Katana is ideal for collectors seeking a refined, authentic piece that captures the quiet strength of the samurai spirit.
