The Yoriichi Tsugikuni Katana is a beautiful tribute to samurai culture, a perfect balance between the art of warfare and visual poetry.

Blade (刀身): 1060 carbon steel is renowned for its ideal balance of hardness and flexibility, making it impact-resistant while maintaining a sharp edge. This type of steel is often preferred for functional blades as it offers superior cutting performance while being more tolerant of handling errors, which is essential for intensive training.

Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The sculpted iron Tsuba provides sturdy protection for the hands and adds a touch of functional elegance. Le fer, un matériau historique dans la fabrication des Tsuba, est apprécié pour sa solidité et sa durabilité, offrant une sécurité accrue lors des exercices maniement.

Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The wood light lacquered Saya ensures that the katana remains manageable and balanced. Le laquage offre non seulement esthétique raffinée mais aussi une couche protectrice contre les éléments, préservant ainsi la lame des dommages et de humidité.

Handle (Tsuka 柄): Le tressage doré du manche est pas seulement captivant, il offre également une prise ferme et confortable. As well as being aesthetically pleasing, this braiding serves to absorb perspiration and prevent hand slippage, an essential feature for safe use when practicing.
