Description
The Kōen Katana (紅炎の刀), meaning “Blade of Crimson Flame,” embodies the spirit of passion and rebirth. Its brilliant orange saya and refined blue tsuka create a stunning contrast — a visual balance between fire and calm.
Blade (刀身): Forged from Damascus steel and finished with a Japanese-style mirror polish, this blade showcases a natural wave-like hamon that reflects both artistry and deadly precision. Its layered steel pattern gives each sword a unique texture and strength.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The copper tsuba is engraved with intricate floral motifs, symbolizing life and growth, while offering a balanced handguard during wielding.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in deep navy blue silk ito over orange ray skin, the tsuka features copper ornaments with traditional Japanese designs, enhancing both grip and elegance.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The saya is coated in a fiery orange lacquer with speckled detailing, complemented by hand-carved copper fittings and a multicolor sageo cord, representing vitality and creativity.
The Kōen Katana is not merely a weapon — it’s a statement of artistry and energy. Designed for collectors and practitioners who appreciate the fusion of traditional beauty and modern craftsmanship.
