Description
The Ryūrin Katana — named after the “Dragon Scale” — is a blade of legendary craftsmanship. Forged with a folded Damascus steel pattern resembling dragon hide, it represents both strength and protection in Japanese mythology.
Blade (刀身): Hand-forged with a unique oil-quenched Damascus finish, producing intricate swirling scales across the blade.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Traditional black silk wrap over genuine ray skin, providing comfort and precision in handling.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): A masterfully carved hardwood saya, lacquered with a red dragon in relief — symbolizing power and vigilance.
Elegant yet fierce, the Ryūrin Katana stands as a tribute to the legendary dragons of Japanese lore — a perfect fusion of art and weaponry.
