Dynasty Forge 29`` Bushi 1095 Katana in Cherry Blossom Theme (DF020) |
Points: 30
|
The Dynasty Forge Bushi Cherry Blossom Katana features a blackened iron tsuba in a cherry blossom theme. The grip is wrapped in dark green silk cord over white ray skin. Includes a black lacquered wood saya and cotton sword bag.
The Bushi class combines a clay-tempered blade with a fine hybrid polish. This polish, while refined enough to reveal the Hada and Hamon, is also more resistant to scuffing and scratches. Therefore, the Bushi class blades are the best choice for practitioners looking for a blade with traditional handling characteristics in a more durable finish. For the collector, the Bushi class is a great entry point into the appreciation of Japanese swords. Sold Out
