Description
The Suirantō 翠嵐刀 embodies the perfect balance between serenity and strength. Its Damascus steel blade, adorned with undulating patterns, reflects the breath of the wind through the forests. The jade green silk wrap and the gilt copper ornaments create a visual harmony between nature and craftsmanship.
Every detail — from the carved floral tsuba to the speckled saya evoking snow — pays tribute to the timeless beauty of the samurai tradition. This blade is far more than a sword: it is an emblem of serene determination and of an art that endures.
Buying a sword in the UK
Sold only to adults aged 18 and over. Curved swords with a blade of 50 cm or more are hand-forged using traditional methods, as required by the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Offensive Weapons) Order as amended in 2008.

Care
- Wipe the blade after every handling with a soft cloth; never touch it with bare fingers.
- Apply a thin film of oil every few weeks to prevent rust.
- Store it horizontally in its saya, edge up, away from damp.
