Handmade Samurai Wakizashi – Kobuse Blade with Full Rayskin Saya
This handcrafted Japanese wakizashi sword is forged in the traditional Kobuse lamination method, combining a 1095 high carbon steel edge with a folded steel jacket for exceptional sharpness, durability, and flexibility. The result is a highly functional, battle-ready short sword that echoes the precision and honor of the samurai era.
The blade is clay tempered to produce a real hamon line and features a folded steel grain pattern (hada), adding both beauty and historical authenticity. The full tang construction and hand sharpening make it ideal for martial artists, tameshigiri, or collectors seeking a true piece of Japanese craftsmanship.
The saya (scabbard) is wrapped in genuine rayskin (samegawa), providing a unique and elegant texture. The fittings are traditional and secured with hishigami-enhanced tsuka-maki to ensure tight wrapping and long-term usability.
