He is the patron of the warriors of Japan as well as the punisher of the evil. He is one of the Seven Gods of Fortune, according to Shinto belief. He is also one of the Four Guardian Gods protecting one of the Cardinal points, the North. According to legend he was called upon and came to the Prince Shotoku in 587 during the anti-Buddhist clans of Japan. This is the Damascus Steel Katana. The sword has been hand made and is completely disassembled. The blade is full tang and very well balanced. The sword is fully functional. The Sword includes a FREE WOODEN DECOARTIVE BOX, ONE TIER STAND, AND CLEANING KIT. Attributes of the Weapon: Blade: The blade of the sword has been constructed in the lost Damascus Steel folding technique. This is done by hand through a painstaking process of stacking individual layers of steel. This technique can be easily seen by the unique patterning of the steel on the blade. Traditionally this wood like grain pattern is known as the water mark. The blade features a bo-hi (blood groove) to better balance the blade and give audible feedback when the sword is swung. The Yokote is well defined, bordering a Kissake. The sword blade is full tang and comes razor sharp. Saya: The scabbard of the sword is wooden with a black semi gloss finish. Wrapped around the upper half of the sheath is a black sage-o with a bright copper kurigata. Tsuba: The Habaki is a one piece brass construction over a copper Seppa. The Tsuba is blackened steel alloy with Bishomon in relief and gold and silver highlights. Silver lightening decorates the opposite side. A second Seppa secures the Fuchi to the Tsuba. Tsuka: The Fuchi is also blackened steel alloy with a silver crane and blossoms. The Tsuka is wood covering the tang of the blade. Over the wood is a ray skin Same. A black cotton Ito has been wrapped over the Same. Two bamboo Mekugi secure the blade in Tsuka. The Kashira is a Japanese Lion. See less »
