28.5" Daimyo F/F Tri-Steel Tachi in Sunburst Orange
A premium Katana hand-forged with 1095/1080/1060 tri-steel construction. Forged from unique blend of 1095/1085 high-carbon steel and 1060 spring steel, this 28" blade exhibits all the aesthetic qualities of the traditional Japanese sword.
Please note this sword is available for the same price with and without Bo-Hi in Sunburst and speckled Brown (which is less bright, but also tri-color, brown/gold/black).
Forge-folded 8-12 times, the blade's surface shows a complex Hada, most commonly in the Mokume and Ayasugi styles. The Hamon and Hada are further enhanced by a traditional hand-polish on imported Japanese stones. A hand-carved Bo-Hi gives the blade a lively and agile feel.
The Tachi is meticulously mounted with gold-plated and darkened fittings. The 10.5" Tsuka is wrapped in brown silk Ito. The Saya is lacquered in orange/red/gold with gold inlayed Mon. The top third is wrapped in brown silk Ito with doe-skin mounts over embroidered silk.
