Product description

Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645) is widely regarded as the greatest katana warrior who ever lived. This katana is based on 17th-century originals and named after him.

Made from 1045 carbon steel with a hardness of 55 HRC, the blade is crafted in the Shinogi-Zukuri style with a Hohlkehle (Bo-Hi) groove. The razor-sharp blade features a Hamon finish.

The grip is made in the classical Hineri-Maki style, wrapped with shagreen and rough-woven cotton. Two bamboo stifts (Mekugi) secure the grip to the tang (nakago).

This katana comes with a wooden scabbard made in the Kuroro style.

The katana measures 103 cm overall with a 72 cm blade and weighs 1000 grams.
