Description
The Orochi Katana takes its name from the mythical serpent, symbol of intelligence and deadly grace. Every detail of this blade — from the hand-carved serpent guard to the folded Damascus pattern — embodies the mastery of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
Blade (刀身): Forged from Damascus steel and polished to reveal natural grain and hamon, ensuring strength and cutting balance.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in black silk over authentic ray skin, offering both control and elegance.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): Crafted from premium rosewood with a smooth, natural finish, perfectly matching the dark tone of the blade.
The Orochi Katana stands as a fusion of artistry and power — a tribute to the serpent’s enduring symbol of precision and resilience.
