Features & Craftsmanship:

  • 1095 Clay-Tempered Blade with Makuri Lamination:
    The Guren Katana boasts a blade forged using the intricate Makuri lamination technique. This method layers two types of steel, creating a razor-sharp, durable edge while maintaining a resilient core to absorb impacts without shattering. The blade’s crimson hue and vivid hamon (temper line) stand as stunning visual representations of its precision crafting.

  • Clay Tempering Excellence:
    Clay tempering ensures optimal sharpness and durability. Through meticulous heating and quenching, the blade achieves a hard edge for superior cutting performance while maintaining flexibility and strength in its core, minimizing weak points and enhancing balance.

Handle & Fittings:

  • The wooden handle is elegantly wrapped in genuine Stingray skin (Samekawa), overlaid with a traditional cotton wrap (Tsukamaki) for a secure and comfortable grip.
  • The saya (sheath) features faux mother-of-pearl fittings, paired with a cotton sageo (cord), blending modern aesthetics with traditional design.

Complete Presentation Set:

  • Comes with a wooden display box, black sleeve, cleaning kit, and a stand for a perfect showcase.
