Product Description

This sword combines high-performance S7 tool steel with a fully traditional Japanese aesthetic, resulting in a blade that is both visually stunning and mechanically superior.

The fittings feature a sakura (cherry blossom) motif, cast in gilded copper with refined detail.
The blade itself is engraved with dragons and sakura, adding a symbolic fusion of power and elegance. Every line and texture is executed cleanly, showcasing precise craftsmanship.

The silver nashiji lacquered saya and silk-wrapped handle elevate the presentation further, while the hishigami core and leather ito ensure the wrap stays tight and durable for long-term use.

Structurally, the sword is built around S7 steel—the same material used for industrial impact tools—giving it exceptional toughness, 165 J impact strength, and strong elasticity. The balance point is tuned for powerful yet smooth handling.

For an S7 high-performance blade, this configuration is fully loaded: premium fittings, artistic engraving, luxury lacquer work, and a mirror-polished true-yokote blade.
A refined and reliable sword suitable for serious practitioners and collectors alike.
