Technical Details

Blade Design (Sugata): Unokubi-Zukuri
Renowned for its optimal balance, the Unokubi-Zukuri style features a reinforced tip for improved thrusting ability while keeping the blade light and agile.

Snake-Head Kissaki: A distinct blade tip that widens near the end, resembling a snake's head. This shape reinforces the tip while reducing weight along the blade, offering an ideal balance of strength and maneuverability.
Razor-Sharp Edge: Crafted without niku (curvature on the edge), the blade’s exceptionally sharp edge is perfect for tameshigiri (target cutting) practice.
1095 Carbon Steel with Clay Tempering
The clay tempering process achieves a differentially hardened blade with a 60 HRC edge for outstanding sharpness, while the spine (43 HRC) absorbs impact, enhancing both durability and performance. This traditional technique ensures the katana’s exceptional strength and longevity.
