Shinto Katana

Hanwei's Shinto Katana has a hand-forged T10 high-carbon steel blade with Bo-Hi. Built for cutting, the blade is differentially hardened using the traditional claying method. The Shinto is mounted in black and the tsuka-ito is made of premium black Japanese cotton. The saya is finished in a deep black lacquer with a black cotton sageo. A finely rendered dragon, detailed in gold with true front-and-back detail, forms the black iron tsuba. The fittings are superbly antiqued adding to the aesthetics of the piece. The Shinto is supplied with a protective cloth bag and traditional maintenance kit. Ships Separately, No Express Shipping available on this item.
