Kobuse Steel Katana with Gunome Hamon Handmade Japanese Sword

Hand Forged Kobuse Steel Katana with Genuine Gunome Hamon & Dragon Fittings – Handmade Japanese Samurai Sword

This Handmade Japanese Katana is a premium traditional-style sword featuring a Kobuse steel blade construction, combining an outer layer of 1095 folded steel with an inner core of 1095 steel. This laminated forging method creates a distinctive blade structure with the visual characteristics of folded steel.

The blade features a genuine Gunome Hamon, created through differential clay hardening and oil quenching. With a classic Shinogi-Zukuri blade shape, Chu-Kissaki tip, and Yokote line, this Hand Forged Katana reflects traditional Japanese-inspired sword craftsmanship.

Traditional Kobuse Steel Katana Craftsmanship

This Kobuse Katana uses a laminated blade construction inspired by traditional Japanese sword forging methods. The outer layer is made from 1095 folded steel, while the inner core uses 1095 steel.

Through careful hand forging, clay hardening, and oil quenching, the blade receives its finished heat-treated structure. Actual hardness, durability, and cutting characteristics depend on the finished blade geometry and heat-treatment process.

The natural Gunome Hamon highlights the differential hardening process and gives the blade its distinctive temper-line appearance.

The blade is finished with Hazuya polishing, enhancing the contrast of the hardened edge and revealing the visual characteristics of this Japanese Samurai Sword.

Dragon Theme Brass Fittings and Luxury Saya Design

The sword features elegant brass fittings inspired by traditional Japanese symbolism. The Fudō Myōō & Dragon Tsuba, combined with the Oni and Dragon themed Fuchi and Kashira, creates a distinctive traditional warrior-inspired appearance.

The handle is wrapped with genuine Japanese Silk Ito in wine color using traditional Hineri-Maki with Hishigami. The black genuine rayskin Samegawa and brass dragon Menuki add detail to the handle mounting.

The scabbard features a luxurious high-gloss black lacquer Saya decorated with iridescent mother-of-pearl inlay. Buffalo horn fittings, including Koiguchi, Kojiri, and Kurikata, complete the elegant traditional-style design.

Full Tang Handmade Katana for Collection and Practice

Built with full tang construction, this sword uses a hardwood handle core and two bamboo Mekugi pegs for blade mounting.

With its Kobuse steel construction, genuine Gunome Hamon, dragon-themed fittings, and traditional-inspired handmade production process, this Custom Japanese Katana is a distinctive choice for collectors, martial arts practitioners, and sword enthusiasts.

For martial arts or cutting practice, use the sword only in an appropriate controlled environment with suitable supervision. Inspect the blade, handle, and fittings before use, and avoid hard targets.
