Description
The Kurohō no Tachi Katana — “Black Phoenix Sword” — embodies rebirth through fire and elegance. With its dark, patterned blade and shimmering gold fittings, this katana evokes both mystery and mastery.
Blade (刀身): Forged from T10 high carbon steel with a real hamon, the blade showcases a deep smoky pattern that reflects the power and grace of the mythical phoenix.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The black openwork tsuba mirrors flowing waves and sky currents, paired with golden accents for a refined, noble finish.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in beige ito over black samegawa, the handle offers superb balance and grip, symbolizing stability amid motion.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The saya’s lacquered black surface, scattered with gold spots, resembles embers glowing in darkness — a tribute to transformation and endurance.
The Kurohō no Tachi Katana is a striking piece for collectors and practitioners alike, balancing tradition, aesthetics, and modern artistry.
